CI, confidence interval; OD, odds ratio.

aResults for dominant model (AG + GG versus AA genotypes). All associations adjusted for first three principal components to control for potential residual confounding by ancestry.

bAssociations adjusted for first three principal components plus age, sex, education, cigarette smoking, and body mass index.

cThis group is comprised of those whose only cancer diagnosis was non-melanoma skin cancer.

dThis group includes all remaining cancer cases not included in the above categories.
