Asbestos exposure in job episodes (n=2099) and subjects (n=425) in the two coding series after linkage with the job-exposure matrix
| Exposed* n (%) | Not exposed† n (%) | Not classified‡ n (%) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| *Exposed episodes: exposure probability >0; exposed subjects: at least one episode was classified as exposed. | |||
| †Not exposed episodes: exposure probability = 0; not exposed subjects: all the episodes were not exposed. | |||
| ‡Not classified episodes: the linkage with the matrix did not succeed; not classified subjects: all the episodes were not classified, or the episodes were either not exposed or not classified. | |||
