*

Unadjusted OR (95% CI): Genotype contrast for all SNPs is A/A (ref) vs. any a, where A is the more common allele and a is the less common; random effects for XRCC1 Arg399Gln ever-never & XPD Lys751Gln, fixed effects for others

Ratio of Odds Ratios: Meta-regression used to compare odds ratios in given study design stratum to the odds ratio in the designated reference stratum

Patient controls: controls are persons attending a hospital or disease clinic for treatment or diagnosis, does not include patients at wellness or check-up clinics

§

Non-patient controls: Case-control study participants who are not patients (i.e. not treated at hospital or disease clinic); they may be friend and family controls, cohort members in a nested case-control etc.; also excludes population-based controls
