Changing the Risk Paradigms can be Good for Our Health: -Shaped, Linear and Threshold Dose-Response Models
Both the linear (at low doses)-no-threshold (LNT) and the threshold models ( S -shapes) dose-response lead to no benefit from low exposure. We propose three new models that allow and include, but do not require – unlike LNT and S -shaped models — this strong assumption. We also provide the means to...
