	Cancer stage^a	OR (95% CI)	value
PCa family history
Yes vs. No		0.80 (0.46–1.38)	0.42
Abdominal circumference (cm)^b		1.02 (1.00–1.03)	0.05
Number of close friends and relatives you have, social support
>10		1.0
≤10	IV and III vs. II and I	0.85 (0.48–1.50)	0.57

Number of lifetime PSA tests		0.91 (0.83–0.99)	0.02

^aIf specified, refers to partial proportional odds; if no value specified, it is the proportional odds where coefficients are same for stages IV and III vs. II and I and IV and III and II vs. I. ^bAbdominal circumference was measured at one inch above the navel, even if this was not the usual waistline. ^cStep or grown children could be included in having any children response. OR, odds ratio; PCa, prostate cancer; PSA, prostate-specific antigen.
