Multivariable model adjusted for age (5-year intervals), race/ethnicity (white, African-American, Asian and other), BPH/LUTS history (yes or no), physical activity (MET-hours per week in quintiles), total calorie intake (kcal per day in quintiles) and alcohol intake (0, 0.1 to 4.9, 5.0 to 14.9, 15.0 to 29.9 and 30.0 gm per day or greater), including other lifestyle factors simultaneously, for waist circumference and waist-to-hip ratio models did not include BMI and for lifestyle factors other than obesity measurements models were adjusted for BMI and not waist circumference or waist-to-hip ratio.

Median of each exposure category was used.
