  1. Intercept = Mean at baseline when the mental health measure is zero
  2. Week 12 = Change in cardiovascular health score at week 12 when the mental health measure is held constant at zero
  3. Week 24 = Change in cardiovascular health score at week 24 when the mental health measure is held constant at zero
  4. Life’s Simple 7 = A 1-unit increase in mental health measure corresponds to the effect estimate change in cardiovascular health score at baseline
  5. Week 12*LS7 = A 1-unit higher mental health measure at baseline is associated with an effect estimate change in cardiovascular health score at week 12
  6. Week 24*LS7 = A 1-unit higher mental health measure at baseline is associated with an effect estimate change in cardiovascular health score at week 24
  7. Interpretation Example:
  8. The mean LS5 score at baseline when the perceived stress score is zero is 4.94 (95%CI: 4.04, 5.84)
  9. Change in LS5 at week 12 when the perceived stress score is held constant at zero is 1.13 points (95%CI: 0.44, 1.82)
  10. Change in LS5 at week 24 when the perceived stress score is held constant at zero is 1.25 points (95%CI: 0.57, 1.93)
  11. A 1-unit increase in perceived stress score corresponds to a non-significant 0.03-point higher (0.03, 95%CI: -0.03, 0.08) LS5 score at baseline
  12. A 1-unit higher perceived stress score at baseline is associated with a -0.04-unit decrease (-0.04, 95%CI: -0.09, 0.00) LS5 score at week 12
  13. A 1-unit higher perceived stress score at baseline is associated with a -0.04-unit decrease (-0.04, 95%CI: -0.09, 0.00) LS5 score at week 24
  14. Overall interpretation: There are trends towards higher baseline CES-D and perceived stress scores being associated with change in LS5 measures at week 12 and 24. There were no associations of mental health measures with change in LS6 or LS7 at weeks 12 or 24.
  15. Significant findings are bolded.
