Top SNPs associated with risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and gastric cancer (GC)^a.

<p>Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; ESCC, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma; GC, gastric cancer; MAF, minor allele frequency; OR, odds ratio; SNP, single nucleotide polymorphism.</p>a<p>All SNPs with <i>P</i>-value <0.002 for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), gastric cancer (GC) overall or by anatomic sites are listed. The top SNPs for total GC (<i>P</i>-value <0.002) which have <i>P</i>-value <0.05 for cardia or noncardia cancer are also listed. Results were derived from logistic regression models using genotype trend tests adjusted for age (10-year categories), sex and study.</p>b<p>These SNPs were significant only for gastric cardia or noncardia cancer, but not for total gastric cancer.
