The tumor AKR1B1 score was significantly higher in proximal tumors compared to distal tumors ( p : 0.046, Turkish cohort, Figure S9E ) and in mucinous tumors as compared to nonmucinous tumors with borderline significance ( p : 0.056, Serbian cohort, Figure S9F ), which may be due to the presence of mucinous tumors more often in the proximal colon [ 21 ].

Network analysis methods, such as DSPC and others employed in the present and previous studies, are expected to shed light on these borderline significance differences and especially their association with related phenotypical traits, such as dysfunctional TCA with fatigue in Hashimoto.

Following the stratification by tumor site (colon / rectum) we found that rs1525489 showed a marginal/borderline significance with increased risk of rectal cancer at nominal level of (P trend = 0.0071), while the associations between the SNPs and colon cancer were similar to those considering the two strata together (Table 2 ).
