Poisson regression estimates of relative risk of death from lung cancer, non-malignant respiratory disease (NMRD), and all causes in relation to cumulative exposure
Certified cause of death | Cumulative exposure | Deaths observed (expected) | Adjusted relative risk (95% CI) | p value | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
All analyses exclude deaths and person-years in the first 10 years of follow up. | |||||
