Association of BRCA1 and BRCA2 variants with breast cancer risk in all breast cancer cases and healthy controls. The forest plot illustrates the association of BRCA1 and BRCA2 variants with breast cancer risk in all breast cancer cases and healthy controls. Figure S2. Association of variants with breast cancer risk in ethnicity subgroups: (a) BRCA1 and (b) BRCA2. The forest plot illustrates the association of BRCA1 and BRCA2 variants with breast cancer risk in certain ethnicity subgroups that can be analyzed. (DOCX 145 kb

BRCA1 variants included in genotyping assay design. A total of 23 BRCA1 variants were included in the genotyping assay. Of these, two variants were excluded due to genotyping call rate <95%. Table S1b. BRCA2 variants included in genotyping assay design. A total of 44 BRCA2 variants were included in the genotyping assay. Of these, two variants were excluded due to genotyping call rate <95%. Table S2. Characteristics of Malaysian breast cancer cases and healthy controls in ethnicity subgroups: (a) Chinese, (b) Malay and (c) Indian. There was no difference in age for cases and controls for Chinese and Indian women, but healthy women were on average 2 years older than the cases for Malay women. Table S3a. Frequency of BRCA1 variants detected in ethnicity subgroups. The table describes the frequency of BRCA1 variants detected in Chinese, Malay and Indian women. Table S3b. Frequency of BRCA2 variants detected in ethnicity subgroups. The table describes the frequency of BRCA2 variants detected in Chinese, Malay and Indian women. (DOCX 195 kb
