Percentages are based on the total number of participants who provided data for each variable, rather than on the total number of subjects in each cohort; percentages may not total 100 because of rounding.

NA indicates not applicable.

*

Two subjects with unknown race, 5 with unknown education, 90 with unknown income, 60 with unknown insurance information, and 3 with unknown risk of relapse were excluded.
