  1. SD, standard deviation; n, total number of lung cancer cases or control subjects.
  2. ap-values were derived from Pearson Chi-square test except age and pack-years; Student t-test was used for age and pack-years.
  3. All p-values are two-sided. p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
