DNA Repair score definition: 0.00621 × APE1 – 0.047 × OGG1 – 0.0223 × MPG. APE1 = apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1; CI = confidence interval; MPG = methylpurine DNA glycosylase; OGG1 = 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase; OR = odds ratio.

Unconditional logistic regression adjusted for age, sex, and smoking status (smoker, past smoker, never smoker).

Cross-validated odds ratios calculated according to the SDs and tertiles of the cross-validated DNA Repair scores.

§

Score was fitted in the unconditional logistic regression model as a continuous variable. 0.98 U is the 1 SD in the control group for the DNA Repair scores. For each model, the estimated odds ratios for smoking were slightly different and the range was as follows: current vs never = 57.1–59.4; current v ex = 1.27–1.29.

Tertiles of the control individuals’ values. The upper tertile was chosen as the referent.
