The p for trend is based on the F test (general linear models) for a variable assigned the dosage of the haplotype or variant allele.

Dietary variables are presented as geometric means (grams/day unless otherwise noted) and are energy-adjusted.

††

Mean intakes are partially adjusted for case status, race, age, and sex and fully adjusted for case status, race, age, sex, smoking status, lifetime smoking (pack-years), and family history of colorectal cancer.
