Figures & data
Table I. Clinical observation of seven male cases with soft-tissue sarcoma and exposure to phenoxyacetic acids Citation[6].
Table II. Mantel-Haenszel odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for soft-tissue sarcoma and exposure to phenoxyacetic acids or chlorophenols. Stratification was made by age, vital status and study. Median number of days for controls was used as cut-off in dose-response calculations. Meta-analysis of four case-control studies on soft-tissue sarcoma including 434 cases and 948 controls Citation[7–10].
Table III. Mantel-Haenszel odds ratio (OR) and 90% confidence interval (CI) for exposure to dioxins in four case-control studies on soft-tissue sarcoma including 434 cases and 948 controls Citation[7–10], Citation[12]. Stratification was made according to study.
Table IV. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for non-Hodgkin lymphoma and exposure to different agents. Mantel-Haenszel method stratified by age was used in the first study Citation[16], conditional logistic regression analysis in the second study Citation[17], and unconditional logistic regression analysis with adjustment for age, sex and year of diagnosis (cases) or enrolment (controls) in the third study [unpublished data]. The analysis in study I was based on 105 cases and 335 controls Citation[16], in study II on 404 cases and 741 controls Citation[17], and in study III on 910 cases and 1016 controls [unpublished data]. Numbers of exposed cases and controls are given (Ca/Co).
Table V. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for different organohalogen compounds and NHL in relation to titre to Epstein-Barr virus early antigen (EA) IgG Citation[26]. As cut-off the median concentration of the chemicals and titre to EA in the controls was used. Numbers (expressed in ng/g lipid) are shown for cases and controls. Adjustment was made for age, sex and body mass index. For abbreviations of chemicals, see text.
