Pesticide exposure (lifetime-days & intensity weighted life-time days) and adjusted risks of total NHL incidence1.

1During the period from enrollment (1993–1997) to December 31, 2010 in NC and December 31, 2011 in Iowa.2Numbers of cases in columns do not sum to total number of NHL cases (n = 523) due to missing data. In the enrollment questionnaire, lifetime-days & intensity weighted life-time days of pesticide use was obtained for the insecticides: carbofuran, chlorpyrifos, coumaphos, DDVP, fonofos, permethrin and terbufos; the fungicides: captan, chlothalonil and the fumigant: methyl bromide. In the take home questionnaire lifetime-days & intensity weighted life-time days of pesticide use were obtained for the insecticides: aldicarb, carbaryl, diazinon, malathion, parathion, and phorate, the chlorinated insecticides: aldrin, chlordane, DDT, dieldrin, heptachlor, lindane, and toxaphene, the fungicides: benomyl, maneb/mancozeb and metalaxyl, therefore, numbers of NHL cases can vary among pesticides listed in the table.3Adjusted RR: age (4Permethrin for animal use and crop use were combined into one category.5The distribution of life-time days of chlordane exposure was clumped into two exposed groups those who with, ≤8.75 life-time days of exposure and those with >8.75 life-time days of exposure.Pesticide exposure (lifetime-days & intensity weighted life-time days) and adjusted risks of total NHL incidence1.
