Notes: athe genotyping was successful in 1,003 (97.01%) NSCLC cases, and 901 (98.00%) controls for BTLA rs16859629 T>C; badjusted for age, sex, smoking status, alcohol consumption, and BMI (besides stratified factors accordingly) in a logistic regression model. Abbreviations: BMI: body mass index; NSCLC: non-small-cell lung cancer.
