  1. For stratified analyses, log-binomial regression model did not converge at the “short distances” level; we therefore performed Poisson regression models with robust error variance for both levels
  2. RR relative risk, RD risk difference, CI confidence interval
  3. aLog binomial regression model 1 included neighborhood education levels, distance to work, and was adjusted for age at the mean, low individual education, living with a child under the age of thirteen, and living in the Rhône “département”
  4. bLog binomial regression model 2 included neighborhood education level, distance to work, the interaction term between neighborhood education levels and distance to work, and was adjusted for age at the mean, low individual education, living with a child under the age of thirteen, and living in the Rhône “département”
