| Pre-surgery PSA (ng/mL) | 181 | −0.181 | 0.015 |
| Age at surgery (Years) | 181 | −0.206 | 0.006 |
| Total Gleason | |||
| 5–6 | 60 | 6.07 (4.17 – 7.95) | 0.077 |

P-value is calculated by Kruskal-Wallis test, Wilcoxon rank-sum test, or Spearman rank correlation as appropriate.
Abbreviation: IQR, interquartile range; CC, correlation coefficient.
