a

The overall results were calculated using conditional logistic regression adjusting for age (continuous). The crude model adjusts for the matching factors age (categorical), race, sex, and study cohort (ATBC, PLCO, CPS2) adherent in the study design. The multivariable model further adjusts for age (continuous), diabetes (yes/no), BMI (<25, 25-<30, 30+, unknown), and smoking (never, former quit 15+ years, former quit <15 years, current).

b

The smoking stratified analyses were done using unconditional logistic regression because the match needed to be broken to stratify by smoking. The multivariable models adjust for age, cohort (ATBC, PLCO, CPS2), sex, diabetes (yes/no), BMI (<25, 25-<30, 30), and smoking (former smoking models: former quit 15+ years, former quit <15 years). These models exclude unknown BMI. Interaction significance calculated using a −2 log likelihood test with 2 degrees of freedom comparing a model with an interaction term with smoking status and one without any interaction terms.
