Adjusted for sex, first degree family history of CRC, age at randomisation, smoking (current or former), alcohol (current/no), history of diabetes, BMI. We tested for an interaction between the PRS and aspirin treatment for incident CRC risk in the coxph model using the Wald test. SD=Standard deviation, HR=Hazard ratio, CI=Confidence interval, BMI=Body mass index.
