CRP and kidney cancer: The sequential addition of exposures for mutual adjustment showed that adjustment for CRP mainly accounted for the attenuation of the positive association of neutrophil count with kidney cancer risk in the models combining all exposures and adjustment for neutrophil count accounted for the abolition of the positive association with monocyte count, while adjustment for neutrophil count and BMI accounted for the attenuation of the positive association with CRP and the shift towards the inverse of the association with lymphocyte count (Supplementary Figure S3).
