Note: Independent variables: frequency of high calorie snacks (NUTHC), frequency of high fiber cereal (NUTFBR), nutrition risk score (NURSCR), and nutrition risk classification (NURCLS, 2 = moderate risk, 3 = high-risk). Covariates: OA type, age, sex, body mass index (BMI), depressive symptoms (CES-D-10), education level (EDU), income (INC), social inequality (SEQ), heart disease (HRT), diabetes (DIA), and kidney disease (KID). Bolded values indicate significant findings.
