facilities such as nuclear power plants with different smoking habits -Critical analysis of the Radiation Effects Association’s recent Report- Nagai koko NPO Citizen's Science Initiative Japan [email protected]
on June 1 2019 Smoking confounding was analised for cancer deaths among Japanese nuclesr male workers 2 deaths among Japanese nuclesr male workers 75,000 whose smoking habit are known. The data was found to be better fitted by a quardratic model than the linear model and it showed that the smoking habit contributes only about 20% of the risk increasing.
in 2015 report that smoking risk among this population contributes about 60% of risk incresing. However, this estimates is derived by using the linear model, deviation of which is very large from the data. 3 deviation of which is very large from the data. Furthermore, O/E for 6 dose categories were calculated for different smoking habit groups and the risk incresing with dose was found for never-, now- and past-smoking groups. The result for never- smoking group is especially important, because it is free from smoking confounding.
