PRS, polygenic risk score derived from 895 blood pressure loci in Evangelou et al.(13); SD, standard deviation; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; Covariates included age at childhood cancer diagnosis, age at last follow-up, sex, body mass index, smoking status (current or former vs. never), physical activity (vigorous intensity exercise in metabolic equivalents), cohort (CCSS original cohort, CCSS expansion cohort and SJLIFE), alkylating agents, heavy metals, abdominal radiation, hypothalamic-pituitary axis radiation, total body radiation and nephrectomy
