  1. Table 5 includes analyses that describe the association between FFM or FM on PC after controlling for either FM or FFM. Analyses evaluate FM and FFM as either continuous variables or at quartiles
  2. * PC = FM (continuous), FFM (continuous), age, prostate volume, PSA, race, family history, and current treatment for diabetes, CVD, BPH, and hyperlipidemia
  3. ** PC = FM (Quartiles), FFM (Quartiles), age, prostate volume, PSA, race, family history, and current treatment for diabetes, CVD, BPH, and hyperlipidemia
