  • Model 1=simple regression, model 2=model 1 + health behaviour (smoking, snuff use, alcohol consumption and physical inactivity; coefficients not shown), model 3 = multiple regression with socioeconomic status (SES) at all ages, model 4=model 3 + health behaviour.

  • AL, allostatic load; b(SE), unstandardised regression coefficient (standard error); β, standardised regression coefficient.
