## Abstract Cancers of the upper aero‐digestive tract (__i.e.,__ oral cavity, pharynx, larynx and oesophagus) are largely attributable to smoking and drinking habits, but the correct estimation of the dose‐response relationship between alcohol and cancer risk is challenging. Step functions are wide

6-Mercaptopurine riboside (6-MF'r) is used as a cytostatic chemotherapeutic. The teratogenic potential in rodents has been well known for several decades. In this study, the teratogenic risk of low doses of 6-MPr in NMRI mice was estimated based on a dose-response study. The effective doses correspo
For modelling dose-response relationships in case-6ontrol studies the multiplicative logistic regression model, assuming the relative risk to be an exponential function of the dose, is widely known. If the relative risk is assumed to be a linear function of the dose, several authors (see e.g. ## BE
