a

Continuous neighborhood walkability variable scaled to the standard deviation (SD = 3.11).

b

Model 1 did not adjust for covariates (univariate model).

c

Model 2 adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, education level, smoking status, alcohol intake, menopausal status, parity, percent of black population in neighborhood, and percent below the poverty level living in neighborhood at baseline.

d

Model 3 adjusted for all model 2 covariates in a subset of participants who stayed at the baseline address throughout all the follow-up.

e

Model 4 adjusted for all model 2 covariates and censored participants at lost to follow-up time, withdrawal date, or moving date.
