| Variable | Prostate cancer | |
|---|---|---|
| Crude OR (95% CI) | Adjusted OR (95% CI) | |
| Prior Alzheimer’s disease | 1.53* (1.06∼2.21) | 1.52* (1.04∼2.22) |
| Obesity | 2.11** (1.21∼3.70) | 1.77* (1.00∼3.14) |
| Hypertension | 0.97 (0.87∼1.09) | 0.96 (0.86∼1.09) |
| Diabetes mellitus | 0.97 (0.87∼1.07) | 0.88* (0.79∼0.99) |
| Testitis or epididymitis | 1.43* (1.01∼2.04) | 1.31 (0.91∼1.97) |
| Gonorrhea or chlamydia infection | 1.39 (0.91∼2.14) | 1.46 (0.95∼2.26) |
| Hyperlipidemia | 1.22*** (1.11∼1.35) | 1.21*** (1.09∼1.35) |
| Alcohol abuse/alcohol dependence syndrome | 0.60 (0.21∼1.76) | 0.58 (0.20∼1.73) |
| Prostatitis | 2.93*** (2.48∼3.46) | 2.79*** (2.36∼3.30) |
Note: *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. The adjusted odds ratios were derived from a conditional logistic regression model and adjusted for all other variables. CI, confidence interval.
