- a Average weight gain per decade of age is calculated as the fitted value from the model for the end of the age range minus the fitted value for the beginning of the age range, standardized to 10 years (i.e., divided by the length of the age range, and then multiplied by 10 years). The fitted values were adjusted to weighted age at clinic visit, proportion male, proportion born before 1980, distribution of age at immigration, proportion for each site-background combination, and proportion preferring 5 s and 10s
