*t-statistic was statistically significant (p < 0.01); SE = standard error; Durbin–Watson Statistic = 2.08; Overall R2 = 0.73; Standard error of the estimate (SEE) = 3.8 mL/min/mmHg. Sex, Race, Age2, and Height, accounted for approximately 57%, 10%, 4%, and 2% of the total variance in the model. ANOVA results were rounded to the nearest whole number except for Residual Mean Square error, which was rounded to two decimal places
