Note.

a

Sample sizes vary due to missing SCID-I and/or cancer site data.

b

Refers to presence of at least one of four SCID diagnoses, not including depression diagnosed using Endicott substitution method.

c

Tests comparing Cancer Site and At Least One SCID-I Diagnosis conducted. Cell counts comparing each cancer site and individual SCID-I diagnoses were too small to estimate stable, reliable differences between the subgroups. df = degrees of freedom.
