An SMN diagnosis was assigned to patients who developed a malignancy at least 2 months after the index Hodgkin lymphoma diagnosis according to the criteria for multiple primary cancers developed by SEER program. All these hazards were adjusted by age, gender, diagnosis year of Hodgkin lymphoma, Ann Arbor stage, histology, Yost index, and treatment as appropriate.

SMN, second malignant neoplasm; NHL, non-Hodgkin lymphoma; SEER, Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results. NA, not available.
