a

Obtained from case-only analyses done using unconditional logistic regression models using the dichotomized exposure as the outcome variable and individual SNPs as the independent variables to obtain ORs that would be equivalent to interaction OR (IOR).

b

colon vs rectum heterogeneity test;

c

pan-fried, oven-broiled, or grilled;

d

rare-medium as referent group;

e

Light or medium browned as referent group.
