Baseline and longitudinal association between GL and primary stress markers of AL among men in the Boston Puerto Rican Health Study¹

	Outcome: baseline primary markers of AL		Outcome: change in primary markers of AL
	Baseline GL		GL change		GL change adjusted for baseline AL
Exposure	β (95% CI)	P	β (95% CI)	P	β (95% CI)	P
Model 1	−0.009 (−0.06, 0.04)	0.71	−0.005 (−0.06, 0.05)	0.85	0.001 (−0.04, 0.04)	0.96
Model 2	−0.006 (−0.06, 0.04)	0.81	−0.007 (−0.06, 0.05)	0.80	0.002 (−0.04, 0.05)	0.94
Model 3	−0.006 (−0.07, 0.04)	0.83	−0.009 (−0.06, 0.04)	0.72	−0.002 (−0.04, 0.04)	0.94

¹Glycemic load and glycemic load difference are shown in increments of 10 units. Model 1 = unadjusted. Model 2 = age and BMI. Model 3 = model 2 + education + smoking + physical activity. AL, allostatic load; GL, glycemic load.
