DSF = Digit Span Forward; DSB = Digit Span Backward; TMT-B = Trail Making Test, Part B; BTA = Brief Test of Attention; VF = Verbal Fluency Test; HVLT- L = Hopkins Verbal Learning Test‒Learning; HVLT-D = Hopkins Verbal Learning Test‒Delayed Recall; HVLT-DI = Hopkins Verbal Learning Test‒Discrimination Index.

Beta and standard error values for 8 SNPs retained in the multivariate regression models, controlling for age, education, treatment with RT ± CT, time since treatment, and tumor location.

Blank cells indicate that the SNP was not associated with the given cognitive test. SNPs and cognitive tests showing very strong (PAS ≥ 0.95) and strong (PAS ≥ 0.90) associations are included.

For SNPs with 3 categories, the effects and standard error of both categories are included even if only one category had PAS ≥ 0.95.
