a The ILCR difference, defined by ∆ILCR = ILCRGR–ILCRNO-GR, where ILCRGR and ILCRNO-GR stand for the ILCR subject to GR and NO-GR model scenario simulations (“Methods”). Positive ∆ILCR indicates an enhancement of lung cancer risk due to BaP. b Annual mean ILCR (the solid blue line) averaged over India subject to “NO-GR” scenario simulation from 1965 to 2014, and the percent contributions of GR to the ILCR, defined as %ILCR = (∆ILCR × 100)/ILCRGR, marked by the red solid line. The light blue shaded area in b represents uncertainties at 95% confidence intervals.
