  1. Hematologic cancer (HC), coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke, and solid cancer point estimate (PE), median, first quartile (Q1), third quartile (Q3), inner quartile range (IQR), lower whisker (LW), and upper whisker (UW) of the lifetime REID% distribution for males. Uncertainty propagation was implemented with a Monte Carlo sampling size of N = 100,000. Point estimates of the REID are found by using the most likely values of uncertainty distribution parameters.
