Relative risk adjusted for age at diagnosis, ethnicity, number of children, age at first pregnancy, time of arrival on the contaminated territory (before and after 1953), linear birth cohort effect and 5-year lagged cumulative stomach dose based on linear ERR model.
OTRC=Original Techa River Cohort (resident in the Techa area in 1950–1952).
One case with unknown information on live birth and age at first pregnancy is excluded from analysis.
