Fig. 2 Adjustedb mean differences in 10-yr follow-up psychological outcome scores according to initial treatment. AMD=adjusted mean difference; AS/WW=active surveillance/watchful waiting; PSA=prostate-specific antigen; RP=radical prostatectomy; RT=radiotherapy; HDR=high-dose rate brachytherapy; LDR=low-dose rate brachytherapy; SEIFA=Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas; TURP=transurethral resection of the prostate; ref. = reference. a P-het corresponds to p values for tests of equal AMDs between the three individual initial active treatment groups. b Adjusted for age (<65, 65–69, 70–74, 75–80 yr), education (university or college degree, high school, less than high school), socioeconomic status of place of residence (SEIFA quintiles), place of residence (major city, inner regional, outer regional/remote/very remote), private health insurance (insured, not insured), employment status (working, retired/unemployed, other), married or living with de facto (no, yes), country of birth (Australia, elsewhere), comorbidity score at diagnosis (0, 1, 2+), PSA at diagnosis (ng/ml), Gleason score at diagnosis (≤4, 5, 6), clinical stage at diagnosis (T1a–T1b, T1c–T2a), postdiagnosis TURP and baseline mental component score.

Fig. 3 Adjustedb mean differences in 10-yr follow-up HRQOL scores according to initial treatment. AMD=adjusted mean difference; AS/WW=active surveillance/watchful waiting; RP=radical prostatectomy; RT=radiotherapy; HDR=high-dose rate brachytherapy; LDR=low-dose rate brachytherapy; HRQOL=health-related quality-of-life; SEIFA=Socio-Economic Indexes for Areas; TURP=transurethral resection of the prostate. a P-het corresponds to p values for tests of equal AMDs between the 3individual initial active treatment groups. b Adjusted for age (<65, 65–69, 70–74, 75–80 yr), education (university or college degree, high school, less than high school), socioeconomic status of place of residence (SEIFA quintiles), place of residence (major city, inner regional, outer regional/remote/very remote), private health insurance (insured, not insured), employment status (working, retired/unemployed, other), married or living with de facto (no, yes), country of birth (Australia, elsewhere), comorbidity score at diagnosis (0, 1, 2+), PSA at diagnosis (ng/ml), Gleason score at diagnosis (≤4, 5, 6), clinical stage at diagnosis (T1a–T1b, T1c–T2a), postdiagnosis TURP, and domain-specific baseline HRQOL score.
