In reply to the discussion: Low-dose study finds no effects [View all]FBaggins
(28,706 posts)11. Just as importantly...
... there's a broad history for the risk increase rising in a linear fashion throughout the dose range, and another model (at least as "legit"
showing a linear dose response above a certain point, but below that line for smaller doses (and by "smaller" I mean still many times the levels involved in recent debates here).
Of course there's a third group (by no means "legit" and clearly a fringe tiny minority), that says that the low dose response is actually well above the levels predicted by the straight-line model.
