Supplementary Figure 1: Plot of estimated relative risks (RRs) from: (i) the polygenic segregation model (Table 3); (ii) logistic regression model comparing AOCS controls and all familial cases (Table 2) and; (iii) population-based estimates (Supplementary Table 1). The 95% CI for the population-based estimates is also displayed. The dashed line represents a relative risk of 1 (i.e. no association). SNPs are ordered by magnitude of the published population-based ORs. Estimates from the polygenic segregation model generally better agree with the population-based estimates than do those from the logistic regression analyses. 19p13 SNPs rs2363956 and rs8170 are not displayed as they are associated with ERnegative breast cancer. HR = hazard ratio; OR = odds ratio; CI = confidence interval. Supplementary Figure 2: Density plots of the observed risk score (ORS) based on 22 SNPs. The three curves are the observed risk score distributions for: (i) population-based controls from the AOCS study (n = 715); (ii) unaffected females with family history of breast cancer from the kConFab study (n = 64) and; (iii) affected women with family history of breast cancer from the kConFab study (n = 432).
