a

Multivariable model #1 includes all candidate variables.

b

Multivariable Model #2 is a minimal model from stepwise reverse selection (retention p ≤ 0.20). See methods for additional detail.

c

According to CDC age/sex norms, body mass index percentile; normal ≤85%, overweight 85– < 95%, obese ≥ 95%, OR = Odds ratio, 95%CI = 95% Confidence Interval, NCI = National Cancer Institute, Dex = dexamethasone, Pred = prednisone.

d

p-Value from trend test.
