  1. Inflammation has no effect on tumor mutational burden in humans (partial r s = 0.07, P = 0.54).

    “but not after adjustment for age and cancer type (partial r s = 0.07, P = 0.54).”

  1. Age has no effect on tumor mutational burden in humans (P = 0.27).

    “attenuated by adjustment for cancer type and lost significance once microsatellite instability (MSI) status, sex, and stage were added (P = 0.27).”

  1. Inflammation is associated with tumor mutational burden in humans (r s = 0.387, P < 0.001).

    “Normal-tissue inflammation correlated with paired tumor TMB (protein r s =0.387, P < 0.001)”

  1. Age is associated with tumor mutational burden in humans (median 4.55 compared with 2.84 mutations per megabase).

    “TMB was higher in older patients (median 4.55 compared with 2.84 mutations per megabase; P < 0.001) and correlated with age (r s = 0.334, P < 0.001)”
