Years of exposure among Russians: males (range= 0.2-41.8yrs, mean= 11.2yrs, median= 7.7yrs); females (range= 0.5-30.6yrs, mean= 6.3yrs, median= 5.4yrs)

Years of exposure among Russians for only low intensity jobs: males (range= 0.2-41.8yrs, mean= 10.1yrs, median= 6.9yrs); females (range= 0.5-23.1yrs, mean= 5.8yrs, median= 5.3yrs)

Years of exposure among Russians for any high intensity jobs: males (range= 3.5-37.5yrs, mean= 17.0yrs, median= 15.4yrs); females (range= 3.7-30.6yrs, mean= 6.8yrs, median= 13.8yrs)
