Adjusted for age at reference date; men with missing genotype information for any SNP were excluded from the analysis (n=97 cases, n=58 controls).

Two-sided p-values were calculated by comparing the -2 Log Likelihood difference between nested models.

Models were adjusted for serum PSA in addition to age at reference date and included cases and controls from Study I with information for PSA.
