  • *P<0.05

  • †Adjusted on the covariates: age, region, alcohol consumption, smoking status, close relative with cancer and living in couple.

  • ‡Calculated using a two-way interaction term composed of socioeconomic variable of interest and survey year dummy variable (2010 vs 2006).

  • BAC, Baccalauréat (high-school diploma); RII, relative inequality index.
