↵4-150 All analyses consider multiple primaries (see methods text). SIRs are calculated only if there are at least five observed cases or five expected.
↵4-151 NHL is defined according to the SEER ICD-0-2 codes, which includes morphology codes M9590-9595 and M9670-9715 (all sites). These codes were converted to the ICD-9 codes listed in the table.
↵4-152 These conditions are not part of the lymphoma, leukaemia, or multiple myeloma categories defined in this study (see methods text).
