FIGURE 1.

Main and competing events in analysis of risk of (A) prostate cancer diagnosis and (B) prostate cancer death in the Metabolic Syndrome and Cancer Project of 285,040 men. Men were followed until the first point in time of main or competing event, or until censoring due to migration or end of follow-up. The number of deaths from all causes in analysis (A) is smaller than the number of deaths from other causes in analysis (B) because many of men followed from date of prostate cancer diagnosis in (A) have died either from prostate cancer or other causes in (B).
