Adjusted Multilevel Linear Regression for Change in Total Simple 7 Score

Intervention Control Difference between groups
Multiple imputation results Estimate (95% CI) p-value Estimate (95% CI) p-value Estimate (95% CI) p-value

Note: Boldface indicates statistical significance (p<0.05). Differences were evaluated using a linear mixed-effects model with multiply imputed data adjusted for education, age, baseline Simple 7 score, and including site as a random effect. Site, baseline age, baseline education, baseline total Simple 7 score, and outcome total Simple 7 score were included in the multiple imputation models. Possible total Simple 7 score ranges from 0 to 14 and ranged from 3 to 12 in this sample. Average baseline total Simple 7 score among the 87 intervention group participants was 7.04 (SD=0.19) and 6.96 (SD=0.18) among the 95 control participants. Among women aged >60 years, mean baseline score in the intervention group was 6.63 (SD=0.32) and 3.36 (SD=0.30) in the control group.
