Figure 3 is a forest plot showing odds ratios (95 percent confidence intervals) 0.002, 0.02, 0.1, 0.5, 2, 5, 20, 100, and 500 (x-axis) in exposure for individual pollutants (y-axis) belonging to the following clusters: retene, WB 2, P A H 5 positive, P A H 2, P A H 29 positive. — Odds ratios for individual pollutants and lung cancer in the smoky coal subpopulation. Estimates were rescaled to reflect the estimated effect for a - standard deviation increase in exposure in the full population to allow direct comparison with estimated effects in Figure 2. The (rescaled) point estimate for retene was off the scale (indicated by the “ $<$ ” symbol).
