Note: The statistical test for ethnicity involved a comparison between Caucasian and all non-Caucasian patients. Positive Cohen’s d values indicate higher values or prevalence in men. Of the 3351 patients total (male n = 401), 286 (male n = 30) had missing ethnicity information, which we did not impute due to complexities in imputing categorical data; no data were missing for primary diagnosis or age.
