On the proportional hazards model for occupational and environmental case-control analyses

Table 4 Estimated male age-conditional probabilities used in the weights of the WC models to analyze the French case-control study of on mesothelioma

(a) p(t) are estimated male age-specific incidence rates of pleural mesothelioma per 100 000 person-years in France in 2005 [25].
(b) π(t) are estimated male age-conditional probabilities of developing pleural mesothelioma within residual lifetime after age t, calculated as $π (t) = 1 - \prod_{l \geq t} (1 - p (l))$ .
