3 Figure 2 Multivariate rate ratio of colorectal cancer as a function of dietary vitamin B6 intake. Data were fitted by a restricted cubic spline Cox proportional hazards model, adjusted for age (in months; continuous), body mass index (quartiles), education (less than high school, high school, or university), total energy intake (continuous), and quartiles of intakes of red meat, saturated fat, calcium, folate, β-carotene, and cereal fiber. The solid line represents point estimates; dashed lines represent 95% confidence intervals.
