Note: adjusted by sex, age, race, education level, marital status, household total income.

Reference for childhood adversity is no ACE, for childhood adversity count is 0, for abuse is No, for household dysfunction is No, for financial strain is No.

Estimate for Logistic model is Odds Ratio, for Poisson model is Rate Ratio, for GLM model is Beta (β).
