Abbreviations: ATBC, Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention Study; CI, confidence interval; CPSII, American Cancer Society Cancer Prevention Study II Nutrition Cohort; EPIC, European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition; GRS, genetic risk score; HPFS, Health Professionals Follow-up Study; MEC, Multiethnic Cohort Study; OR, odds ratio; PCa, prostate cancer; PHS, Physicians' Health Study; PLCO, Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial; T2D, type 2 diabetes.

a Logistic regression models were used to regress GRS on risk of PCa.

b Total indicates the maximum bound for the respective GRS, with a value close to this total indicating high genetic predisposition for T2D.

c Mean GRS was calculated for PCa cases and PCa controls.

d HNF1B was excluded from the GRS and included as a separate covariate.

e For combined estimates, cohort indicators were added to adjust for cohort effects.
