Scatter plot of SNP-specific associations with CRC survival against coefficients of SNP-CRP associations among CRC cases from ISACC using A) additive hazards models and B) Cox proportional hazards models. The slope of the regression line provides an estimate of the association between genetically predicted circulating concentration of CRP and CRC survival; the intercept is an estimate of the average pleiotropic effect across all the genetic variants.
