Note. MWH = men with HIV; MCVR = men with cardiovascular risk; M = mean; SD = standard deviation; ESE = effect size estimate.

a

Data based on controls n = 62 and MCVR n = 51 (missing data).

b

Data based on MWH n = 66 (missing data).

c

Data based on MCVR n = 53 (one participant did not disclose their income and the other is missing data).

d

The effect size here is estimated by the partial eta squared (ηp2) statistic.

e

The effect size here is estimated by the Cramer’s V statistic.
