  1. AgeAccel, age acceleration; CI, confidence interval; MRscore, DNA methylation mortality risk score
  2. *Common predictors include age, sex, tumor stage for overall C-statistics, and age and sex for stage-specific C-statistics
  3. #Models include common predictors and the corresponding DNA methylation aging algorithm
