a Number of individuals treated, excluding controls, b t-ratio of the slope of regression test; t-ratio values greater than 1.96 indicate a significant regression, c heterogeneity factor equals the chi-square divided by the degrees of freedom; heterogeneity factor value less than 1.0 indicates that the log-dose–probit lines are within the 95% confidence limits and thus the model fits the data, d chi-square value, e numbers in brackets give the 95% confidence intervals.
