Associations between the number of unfavorable genotypes and renal cell carcinoma risk
Variable | Case subjects, No. (%) | Control subjects, No. (%) | OR (95% CI)* | P |
No. of unfavorable genotypes† | ||||
0 | 108 (26.87) | 136 (31.70) | Referent | |
1–2 | 117 (29.10) | 149 (34.73) | 1.14 (0.79 to 1.66) | .49 |

* Odds ratios (ORs) were estimated by logistic regression adjusted for age, sex, smoking status, body mass index at 3 years before the diagnosis or recruitment, and hypertension. All statistical tests were two-sided. CI = confidence interval.
† No. of unfavorable genotypes: calculated from rs4132509, rs12031994, rs4430311, rs1058304, and rs23459 94.
Grouping is based on tertiles of the number of unfavorable genotypes in control subjects.
Missing single nucleotide polymorphism data resulted in a lower number of case subjects and control subjects.
