*ORs are for women reporting the highest score of overall social relationship satisfaction (15) compared with women reporting the lowest scores (≤5).
†Percentage of attenuation in log OR=100×(βModel 1−βModel 1+SES, health behaviours and menopausal status)/(βModel 1).
CI, confidence interval; NA, not available; OR, odds ratio; SES, socioeconomic status.
