PR prevalence ratio, CI confidence interval. Model 1 (adjusted for age, sex, education), model 2 (model 1 + adjusted for obesity defined by standard BMI categories), model 3 (model 1 + race/ethnicity-specific obesity categorization, defined by standard BMI for non-Hispanic White and Black and Asian-specific BMI for non-Hispanic Asian). *p value, Wald F statistic for comparison of prevalence between racial/ethnic groups
