*

Obesity was defined as a BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2

**

Adjusted for age, year of surgery, race, BMI, clinical stage, biopsy Gleason score (except analysis of high-grade disease), center, and pre-operative PSA

p – interaction by race assessed by including the cross product term between diabetes and race in the model
