  • $\begingroup$ @ Alex, Thanks for the reply. For the manuscript. Can I just report the pvalue and the coeffient of the main variables? Or I need to provide the full table including all info regarding main and confounders> $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ In articles, these tables are normally never provided. But the correspondent author is expected to provide them if requested by the journal reviewers or readers. $\endgroup$
