Exposure–lag response of smoking prevalence on lung cancer incidence using a distributed lag non-linear model

Abstract The prevalence of smokers is a major driver of lung cancer incidence in a population, though the “exposure–lag” effects are ill-defined. Here we present a multi-country ecological modelling study using a 30-year smoking prevalence history to quantify the exposure–lag response. To model the...
