CI, confidence interval; HR, hazard ratio; PAR, population attributable risk. Numbers in bold face are statistically significant.

PAR(%) reflects, in total Hispanic African women, a risk of colorectal cancer attributable to the risk genotypes and the risk lifestyles, both singly and in combination.

£The number of risk genotypes (IFT172 rs780104 GG; GCKR rs6753534 CC; and NRBP1 rs704791 TT) was defined as follows: 0 (none/1 risk allele) vs. 1 (2/3 risk alleles).

The maximum combined number of lifestyles (> 15.9% of calories from monounsaturated fatty acid [FA]/day, ≥ 25 cigarettes/day, ≤ 38 years old at menopause, > 12.4% of calories from saturated FA/day, ≤ 4.7% of calories from polyunsaturated FA/day, and ≤ 55.6 mg of dietary vitamin K) was 3. The number of lifestyles was determined on the basis of analysis for the combined lifestyle factors ( Figure S2B ) and defined as follows: 0 (null/1/2 risk lifestyles) vs. 1 (3 risk lifestyles).

§The combined number of risk genotypes and risk lifestyles was based on risk genotypes defined as 0 (none/1 risk allele) and 1 (2/3 risk alleles), and risk lifestyles defined as 0 (null/1/2 risk lifestyles) and 1 (3 risk lifestyles). The ultimate number of risk genotypes combined with risk lifestyles was defined as 0 (no risk genotypes and risk lifestyles); and risk genotypes (only risk genotypes) and risk lifestyles (only risk lifestyles), separately and together.

*p values with false discovery rate < 0.05 were shown after multiple comparison corrections via the Benjamini-Hochberg method.
