Fig. 2

Forest plot comparing univariable and multivariable Mendelian randomization effects of age at first sex and number of sexual partners on oropharyngeal cancer risk. Effect estimates are reported on the log odds scale with 95% confidence intervals. Age at first sex point estimate represents the exponential change in odds of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma per SD change (7.3-month delay) in age at first sex. Number of sexual partners point estimate represents the exponential change in odds of oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma per SD increase (0.94) in the number of sexual partners
