P1   test of H0 no association between rs45446698 and breast cancer risk, Pint   test of H0 no difference between stratum-specific estimates, Phet   test of H0 no difference between iCOGS and OnocoArray data, NK not known.

Studies with less than 50 cases in any stratum were excluded from the stratified analyses leaving 16 studies for analysis in iCOGS data and 32 studies for analysis in OncoArray data.
