(P < .001). The rate monotonically decreased with age, from 16.5% for men 20 to 39 years of age to 6.9% for men 50 to 59 years of age to 1.4% for men 70 years of age or older (P < .001). The factors associated with a higher likelihood of CPM included younger age (eg, 20-39 years vs ≥70 years, with an adjusted odds ratio of 15.3 [95% CI, 7.7-30.4]), white race (blacks vs whites, with an adjusted odds ratio of 0.6 [95% CI, 0.40.9]), and private insurance (Medicaid vs private insurance, with an adjusted odds ratio of 0.5 [95% CI, 0.2-1.0]) (Table 2).
