a

All percentages were calculated using sample weights as described in Methods. Unweighted numbers of patients were shown to reflect actual sample size.

b

61 individuals had unknown marital status, and these subjects were not included in the model

c

Year categories display row %, while the rest of the variables display column %.

d

Odds ratios adjusted for all other variables included in the table.
