ACT=Australian Capital Territory. ARP=affected residential property. The Lancet Public Health 2017 2, e522-e528DOI: ( /S (17) ) Copyright © 2017 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Ltd. This is an Open Access article under the CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Age-standardised incidence of mesothelioma, by calendar period (1984–2013) Incidence is directly age-standardised to the Australian 2001 population. Vertical bars represent 95% CIs around point estimates for the incidence in every period. The Lancet Public Health 2017 2, e522-e528DOI: ( /S (17) ) Copyright © 2017 The Author(s).

4 Figure 3 Cancer outcomes
SIRs are the incidence of each selected cancer in ARP residents compared with the incidence in non-ARP residents, standardised for age and calendar period. SIRs are plotted on a log scale and are represented with squares, with 95% CIs indicated by horizontal lines. ARP=affected residential property. E=expected. O=observed. SIR=standardised incidence ratio. *One-sided 97·5% CI. The Lancet Public Health 2017 2, e522-e528DOI: ( /S (17) ) Copyright © 2017 The Author(s). Published by Elsevier Ltd.
