Table 5.
Categories of mean concentrations of environmental benzene | OR for environmental exposure to benzene for an increase across percentiles | Total OR for ever exposed to occupational benzene and to environmental benzene | Total OR for every 10 years of duration of exposure to occupational benzene and to environmental benzene |
---|---|---|---|
5th to 25th percentile | 2.00 | 2.60 | 2.20 |
25th to 75th percentile | 1.45 | 1.89 | 1.60 |
75th to 95th percentile | 0.95 | 1.23 | 1.04 |
aFrom multiplicative models using the same covariables as in model 7 and including occupational exposures to benzene, in separate models, for ever exposed and duration of exposure.
