aOR, adjusted odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; SD, standard deviation
Odds ratios were adjusted for county of residence, pack-years of tobacco smoking, alcohol drinking amount in the 1990s, family history of cancer, and mutually adjusted for all the other variables in this table. Odds ratios for sex and age are not reported because the cases and controls were originally matched on sex and age.
