Statistical Issues in Carcinogenic Risk Assessment

Statistical issues in carcinogenic risk assessment.

Considerable progress has been made on the development of a variety of analytical methods to aid in the carcinogenic risk associated with exposure to both occupational and environmental agents. Although the development of these methods has been accompanied by consideration of many statistical issues, there are many areas where additional effort could be directed if these analytical methods are ...

Statistical Issues in Ecological Risk Assessment

Ecological risk assessment (ERA) is concerned with making decisions about the natural environment under uncertainty. Statistical methodology provides a natural framework for risk characterization and manipulation with many quantitative ERAs relying heavily on Neyman-Pearson hypothesis testing and other frequentist modes of inference. Bayesian statistical methods are becoming increasingly popula...

Models for carcinogenic risk assessment.

approach is the recognition that the response to a carcinogenic agent depends on the rate of exposure. For the radioactive agents the priority for the study of the so-called dose-rate effects appears to belong to Upton (3). A review (4) indicates that important dose-rate effects exist also for certain chemical carcinogens. Another item that I miss in Comnfield's approach is the phenomenon of sy...
