Abbreviations: CRC=colorectal cancer; HR=hazard ratio; PC=principal component.

a

Cox proportional hazard model adjusted for age at diagnosis, sex, race, stage at diagnosis, reported screening procedure, marital status, MSI status, and BRAF mutation status where applicable; subjects with missing information on tumour location (n=14) were excluded from the stratified analysis.

b

Global P for association is from a likelihood ratio test with degrees of freedom equal to the number of PCs.
