  1. The outcome was health-related quality of life, measured by the Short Form-8 survey. Effect sizes are shown as effect size (95% confidence interval) with p value determined by linear regression. Model 1 is adjusted for age, sex, and race/ethnicity. Model 2 is additionally adjusted for body mass index and diabetes status.
