  1. Response and exposure variables are ln-transformed in the analysis. Homogeneity of slopes: p-value for the test for homogeneity of slopes between study group and exposure variable. Common slope: the estimated common slope across study groups assuming no interaction. Common intercept: p-value for the test of a common intercept across study groups assuming a common slope. Adjusted R-square assuming a common slope.
