Excess relative risk per Sv at specific ages, 5, 10, and 15 year lag assumptions, follow up of Hanford Site workers through 1994
| Cause of death | Age range of cumulative dose | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lag (years) | Ages 16 to 34 | Ages 35 to 44 | Ages 45 to 54 | Ages 55 to 82 | |
| *Adjusted for age-at-risk, birth cohort, race, gender, SES, employment status, in vivo monitoring, work in plutonium jobs, and radiation doses in other age groups. | |||||
| †Likelihood ratio test, one degree of freedom, comparing models with all four age specific dose terms to models that omit the parameter for the age specific cumulative dose in each column. | |||||
