a Chi-square test (cut-off point: KLK7 = 67th percentile)

b Chi-square test (dichotomized into low level by KLK5 low and KLK7 low, and high level by KLK5 high and/or KLK7 high; cut-off point: KLK5 = 67th percentile, KLK7 = 67th percentile)

Due to missing values, numbers do not always add up to n = 139.
