  1. Risk factors include age at diagnosis, smoking status, BMI category, CVD medication use, prevalence of chronic conditions at diagnosis, prior history of cancer, history of chemotherapy, and treatment with anthracyclines. P-diff represents the p-value for the difference between the risk factor-only model
