Hazard ratio estimates at ages 30, 50 and 70 in mutation carriers compared with mutation non-carriers by sex, with corresponding 95% confidence intervals. Estimates based on the specified hazard function for age at diagnosis of any hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer and colorectal cancer

HNPCC = hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer

CRC = colorectal cancer
