1

An 80% explained-variance threshold is used for including principal components (PC) in the model.

2

P-value for each model is from a likelihood ratio test (LRT) with degrees of freedom equal to the number of principal components and is a test of gene-level associations.

3

The colorectal neoplasia outcome categories are not mutually exclusive.
