Model 1: Hazard ratios are adjusted for age (linear), race (white, black, other), family history of prostate cancer, longitudinal PSA (linear; time-dependent); longitudinal DRE (normal vs abnormal; time-dependent), negative biopsy at baseline or on study (yes vs no; time-dependent).

2

Incidence Density Hazard ratios are adjusted for age, PSA, DRE status within the prior year, family history of prostate cancer, prior negative biopsy and race; Imputation was performed separately for any and high-grade PCa.

For the -specific models, participants with a different grade of cancer are censored at diagnosis date, and cases with no known Gleason score (N=203) are removed from the analysis.
