Logistic regression model for association between Fn infection and CRC molecular subtypes. Discovery cohort from North Carolina, USA (left) and validation cohort from Mie, Japan (right). Association was modeled by comparing MSS versus L/E or MSI-H. Positive for Fn infection was designated when the sample gave detectable Fn-specific PCR products by qPCR. The association was adjusted by sex, age, tumor location and tumor stage. The X-axis represents a range of 95% confidence interval (CI). Each horizontal bar indicates 95% CI for that variable. A blue or orange bar represents the significance or insignificance, respectively, between each variable and Fn infection. The middle diamond shape represents the value for the odds ratio. The P-values are shown after each variable
