Abbreviations: BEP = bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin; BMI = body mass index; BP = blood pressure; EP = etoposide and cisplatin; SBP = systolic blood pressure.
Controls were derived from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) and matched 1:1 to Platinum Study patients by age, race, and education (refer to Methods).
All BMI values were confirmed as accurate.
The P-value (t test between mean of log-transformed SBP between all Platinum Study patients vs. NHANES controls) is significant (P < .001).
The P-value (χ2 between all Platinum Study patients vs. NHANES controls) is significant (P < .001).
