  1. When 2 or more SNPs in the same gene showed significant association, only the best SNP is reported
  2. a Dose was accounted for by including the continuous variable log(1 + dose). Subjects who received more than 2.0 Gy were excluded
  3. b P corr : Bonferroni corrected p-value
  4. c A log-additive model (i.e. a multiplicative model of inheritance), which assumes the same increment in risk for each allele at a given locus was used
  5. d Dominant model of inheritance (combined heterozygotes and rare homozygotes versus common homozygotes)
  6. e Recessive model of inheritance (rare homozygotes versus combined heterozygotes and common homozygotes)
  7. SNP single nucleotide polymorphism, MAF minor allele frequency, OR odds ratio, 95% CI 95% confidence interval, UTR untranslated region, N/A not applicable
