The displayed numbers correspond to the best association p value out of the 11 different PGRS which were derived using different p value thresholds. In this part, we used the total set of controls with each of the EOC subtypes

Bolded estimates are statistically significant (Bonferroni P value threshold 2.9 × 10−4)
