  1. Note Each column represented the abbreviated outputs of 2 regression models with geographic region and Public Health as the independent variables and EDE-Q global score and EDE-Q Clinical Risk as the dependent variables
  2. Values in bold are significant with p < 0.05
  3. a Analyses adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, gender, sexual identity, income, and highest level of education completed
  4. EDE-Q = Eating Disorder Examination Questionnaire; B = Coefficient from linear regression; OR = Odds Ratio from logistic regression; CI = Confidence interval
