En ole ehtinyt aiemmin lokia kirjoittaa, joten nyt yleiskuvaus mallista. Viljelylohi on tehty arvioimaan, onko Hites et al (Science 9.1.2004) riskinarviointi hyvin tehty. Ensikommenttina KTL:ss oli se, ett kalan terveyshydyt on unohdettu. Niinp rakensimme mallin, joka 1) kytt samaa EPAn riskimallia saasteiden terveyshaittojen laskemiseen kuin Hites (PCB:n, dieldriinin ja toksafeenin (mutta ei dioksiinien) aiheuttama yhdistetty syriski olettaen additiivisuuden ja linearised multistage-mallin eli suoraan kyttmll EPAn CSF-arvoja) ja 2) laskee mys omega-3-rasvahappojen tuoman hydyn sydnkuolemariskiin.
Vertailu tehtiin 1) olettamalla lohensynti 0.25 - 32 amerikkalaista annosta kuukaudessa ja laskemalla sypriski ja/tai sydnhyty sek 2) olettamalla jokin lohensynti (esim. 20 g/d) ja lisksi jotain oletuksia muista omega-3-lhteist sek niiden muutoksista jos lohensynti muuttuisi.
Vaikutuksen lisksi tehtiin argumenttianalyysi (oma moduli) jossa katsottiin importance analysis eli rank-korrelaatio lhtmuuttujien ja lopputuleman vlille. Tss oli mukana erilaisia ptksi, mm. pitisik katsoa saasteiden syphaittaa vai nettovaikutusta?, Pitisik katsoa terveysvastetta lainkaan vai pelkk altistusta? ja Mill viljelty lohi pitisi korvata? Ptkset otettiin mukaan analyysiin siten, ett kullekin ptsvaihtoehdolle oletettiin sama todennkisyys, ja ne otettiin mukaan satunnaismuuttujina (ikn kuin me yrittisimme arvioida, mik on nestyksen tulos kun tst nestetn). Thn liittyen jin pohtimaan sit, pitisik meidn olettaa pienempi todennkisyys huonoille vaihtoehdoille (kuten eptodennkisille presidenttiehdokkaille annetaan vhemmn aikaa televisiossa) mutta en ptynyt tss mihinkn lopputulokseen, ja niin tasajako ji malliin.
Lisksi on tehty VOI-analyysi (oma moduli). Tss yritin rakentaa VOI-funktiota, joka olisi suoraan laskenut mielenkiinnon kohteena olevan tuloksen (helpottaisi mallinrakennusta jatkossa ja tekisi erilaisten VOIn laskemisen ktevksi), mutta ongelmaksi muodostui se, ett mean-funktio toimi oikein vain, kun se laskettiin variablesta. Jos yritti laskea sen tilapisest, solmun sisll olevasta muuttujasta, tuloksena oli yleens mid. Niinp tyydyttiin laskemaan homma ksipelill kuten Particle VOI -mallissa.
Conclusions from Hites 2004 sislt sitaatteja ja argumentteja keskustelusta, joka on Hitesin myt kynnistynyt. What should be the scope of the assessment oli aikeissa olla moduli, josta eri ptsvaihtoehdot olisivat sinne kirjatun argumentoinnin seurauksena nousseet, mutta sit ei ollut aikaa tyst kovin pitklle.
Confounder analysis -moduli sislt pohdintaa siit, millaiset tekijt voivat vaikuttaa Hitesin lopputulokseen ja kvalitatiivista argumentointia niiden mahdollisista vaikutuksista tulosten tulkintaan.
Help on yksinkertaisesti kopio Help v4 mallista.
20.1. alkoi ongelmaksi tulla se, ett malli rnsysi liikaa, ja oli hankalaa saada indeksit tsmmn lhtarvojen ja lopputuloksen kesken. Niinp ptin tehd uuden version 3, josta kaikki rnsyt on poistettu ja jonka tarkoituksena on toimia mallina Science-artikkelia varten. Kaikki laajemmat tarkastelut siis sstetn mallin seuraaviin versioihin. Niinp versio 2:een jtetn kaikki rnsyt, josta niit sitten voi tarpeen mukaan kopioida takaisin kytss olevaan malliversioon. Nin ehk pysyy selvn se, mit Science-vastineessa on ja mit ei ole.
Fishing and farming, Arguments on fish pollutants, Total pollutant exposure, What should be the scope of risk assessment?, Conclusions from Hites 2004, ja Confounder analysis ovat semmoiset modulit jotka nyt poistetaan versiosta 3. Samoin poistetaan pmodulista solmut Risk or net health effect?, Acceptable risk ja Health effects or exposures? sek niden input nodet.

Versiosta 3 siis on tehty riisuttu versio Science-juttua varten. Lue tarkemmin Loki v 2:sta. Nyt versiosta 3 poistetaan aiemmin kuvatun lisksi Other parts -modulista indeksej, joita ei kytet missn. Nm ovat Viljelyalue, Kalastusalue, Ostokaupunki, Lohilaji ja Saaste.
Argument analysis -modulista poistetaan solmut We should not consider concentrations..., Acceptable exposure, Va2, Health or exposure?, What is salmon replacement?, Va5, Va3, Va3 inputs, Va3 importance eli kaikki solmut. Trkeyssolmu luodaan uudelleen, mutta nyt se voidaan tehd suoraan Outcome-solmulle ilman indeksimuunnoksia. Niinp koko Argument analysis -moduli poistetaan ja asia siirretn VOIs-moduliin, joka nimetn uudelleen VOI and importance analysis.
Food intake -modulista poistetaan Salmon consumption, Salmon replacement, Food change, Salmon amount, Oil increase, Food intake, Wild salmon compensation, Va1, Food_rec, Source1. Eli kaikki solmut keskittyvt nyt vain loheen, eik muita omega-3-lhteit huomioida. Ne tulevat mukaan malliin raja-arvossa, joka kuvaa hydyllisen lissaannin rajaa ja siis sislt absoluuttisen fysiologisen rajan, josta on vhennetty muusta ravinnosta tuleva mr. Tm solmu tehdn Annosvastemoduliin.
VOIs-modulista poistetaan Va16, Va12, VOI, VOI1 ja VOI-laskenta tehdn suoraan Outcome-solmusta.
21.1.2004 Jouni Tuomisto
Malli muuttui eilen siten, ett nyt lasketaan VOI kahdelle eri kysymykselle: pitisik suositella viljellyn lohen enimmissaanniksi 1 annos/kk ja pitisik rajoittaa enemmn kalanrehun saastepitoisuuksia. Nm kaksi nostetaan esiin, koska edellinen on suora vastine Hitesin ym. argumenttiin, ja jlkimminen on korostamassa sit, ett asetettu kysymys mr sen, mik tieto on trke ja mik ei.
Other parts -modulista poistetaan solmut Acceptable exposure increase ja Amount or replacement, ja ARL siirretn Fish advirories -moduliin sek Potency Exposure-response function for pollutant risk -moduliin. Nist moduleista poistetaan vastaavat aliakset.

This version is an update of the model that was used for calculating the results for Tuomisto paper submitted to Science on January 28, 2004. Only argumentation and comments have been clarified and added. No substantive changes have been made to definitions. The descriptions of the variables described in the Table 1 in 'Supportive online material' have not been changed. Therefore, this version produces the results that were presented in the manuscript.
The main conclusions of this study were added as arguments on the top level of the model. The argumentation about the pollutant model selection was clarified (see module Fish advisories).

European Journal of Clinical Nutrition 1999; 53(8):585-590.Highest omega3 dose with health benefitg/dDescribes the amount of fish that is still beneficial when added to diet. After this limit, no extra benefit is assumed from omega-3 fatty acids. The value reflects both the physiological need of omega-3 and the current intake of omega-3 from other sources than salmon. Both parts of the estimate are complicated, and the latter varies from country to country. This might have implications to the decision if we could give country-wise recommendations of feed regulations. The estimate is based on author judgement. A rough idea about the magnitude comes from Din 2004, where the trials had 0.85 - 1.8 g/d of omega-3 with benefit but 3.5 g/d showed no benefit in a small trial where the population used reasonable amount of fish anyway. If the physiological limit is lower, the slope of the exposure-response function should be steeper. Another data comes from Albert 1998: the benefit may be limited to omega-3 doses <4.9 g/mo = 0.16 g/d. Markmann and Gronbaek concluded that 0.6-0.9 g/d is beneficial.Triangular( .2, .5, 1 )496,64,148,382,102,90,476,59852425,39321,65535Din JN, Newby DE, Flapan AD.

All attributes should be used as described in the manuals of Analytica. Exceptions are described here. This description is written for those who read as well as for those who write pyrkilo diagrams.
Class: Shows the type of the node. Some of the variable classes have a special meaning in pyrkilo diagrams. These are presented in Help for pyrkilo diagrams module.
Identifier: Name of the node that is used in definitions. This must be unique. When drafting a model, use automatic identifiers. Only when there is no expectation of many changes in node Titles, you can streamline all identifiers. Try to use short names and the same structure as in the Title. E.g. if title is Long-range transport, use identifier Lrt.
Units: The unit of the value calculated in the node. Should always be defined when the node is a part of causal diagram. If the variable described by the node is dimensionless, '-' should be used. If an explicit unit is not (yet) defined, a description about how the variable could be measured should be used. E.g. 'mass', 'rate', 'age'.
Title: The title that is shown on the node in diagram mode. First use a working name that roughly describes the contents. After your model is stabilised, you can rename nodes to better represent the final essence. Try to avoid intermediate nodes where it is difficult to understand what the outcome means; instead, combine consequent nodes so that the outcome is an understandable (measurable) variable.
Description: A free-text area for describing the contents of the node. All nodes should be explicitly described and justified in the Description so that a user is able to get an idea of the node without looking at the Definition. If the definiton changes remarkably between versions, it is good to describe this and use dates and user's name for clarity (in a similar manner as in Log nodes).
Definition: This defines what is calculated in this node. If the node is a non-numerical argument, it should contain a formula that refers to all nodes that are used to justify the claim; it this case, the numerical result will be nonsense. Pay attention to indexes: all important indexes must be included, but try to work with as few as possible. Use the ';' operator to chop the syntax into pieces.
Check: Criteria to check the values entered.
Reference: This contains a detailed information about the source of the data. The article or book should be found with this data. When building a model, there should be an accompanying RefMan file with the same name but a different extension. This file contains the full information about each reference cited in the model. The name and path of the RefMan file must be mentioned in the Reference of the model. If there is a relevant internet page or a network file, its path can be added here. Analytica 3.0 understands html-code and makes these links clickable. E.g. this is a link to the <a href=http://www.lumina.com>Lumina home page</a>.

The study was well designed and performed, and the results are convincing, althought the risk estimates were large. However, the exposure estimation was based on the vicinity of a major road and black smoke and nitric dioxide ambient concentrations. The current knowledge tends to associate especially fine particles (PM) with cardiopulmonary mortality, and in this study the exposure measure clearly was an indicator of traffic-related PM. However, other explanations exist as well, and e.g. noise was not ruled out as a confounder.
Taken together, the study increases the plausibility of PM being causally linked to cardiopulmonary mortality.Q__therefore_probabl+Pm_plausibility792,424,148,402,412,106,476,22465535,31131,19661D: Harry is born in Bermuda0576,136,148,2852425,39321,65535W: because

This follows the ideas of Stephen Toulmin (Uses of Argument, Cambridge University Press, 1958). In a simple case or drafting phase it is enough to create an argument by joining a piece of data to the claim. A claim node is often called an Argument node, but it should be remembered, that a full argument includes the reasoning in addition to the outcome. Instead of using several nodes to describe the reasoning, as is done here, it is often convenient to write it down inside the argument node, in description attribute (see 'C: Traffic PM increases cardiopulm mortality'). Note that the arrows usually point from the model to the claim. The logic of this is that the model is seen as a description of reality. And the reality affects the claim, not vice versa.
- Data (D) or premises describes the information that supports the claim.
- Warrant (W) makes the argument from data to claim a legitimate one. Often it is not explicitly mentioned in discussion, but it should be described in a pyrkilo unless it is obvious.
- Backing (B) contains some background information needed for warrant, and often it is practical to combine these two.
- Qualifier (Q) describes the strength of the argument.
- Rebuttal (R) defines the scope when the argument is valid.256,180,-1248,172Less important node typesjtue28. Junta 2004 18:0348,24736,480,148,291,257,40,510,515,17Set

In a well-built model, the nuisance parameters are cancelled out before the outcome, so that they do not affect the result given the data used. E.g., we may want to model the human exposure to traffic emissions. We have an estimate about the relative contributions of the most important sources to the exposure, but we don't have absolute values from fate and dispersion models. Therefore, when we want to express causal connections, we must056,208,148,2958981,65535,52427Non-causal node 8R2BNon-causal nodes are used when the relation between nodes is not causal. Ice cream consumption and drowning accidents are correlated (at least in Finland). One is not a cause of the other, but both are affected by the outside temperature during summer. Non-causal connections can be used in models for deducting values for one node when the other is known. A typical example of this is a top-down model, where we may have information on 1) total concentration of a pollutant and 2) source contribution of certain emission sources (as a fraction of total concentration). The source contribution is not a causal variable, it is merely an index of all (unknown) causal variables, but it can be used to estimate the concentration caused by a particular emission source.0168,200,148,242,587,271,476,41239321,55707,65535Log 329.10.2003 Jouni Tuomisto
This is the third version of the Help model. Originally it was planned that it would habe been included in each model as a linked module, but soon it was found that the link caused much more trouble than benefit. It is therefore used as a stand alone model. However, it may be a good idea to embed it into each model using Copy (not Link).

There is a need for methods facilitating the flow of information and understanding between science and policy. The principle is to describe a risk situation in a formal manner. Pyrkilo is an enhanced causal diagram that contains items along a causal pathway (or network) from e.g. abatement strategies to emissions to dispersion to exposure to effects. It has been designed to describe also other than causal connections such as non-causal reasoning, values, preferences, and arguments.
These diagrams use Analytica(TM) platform, a graphical Monte Carlo simulation program. It is based on nodes (or variables or objects). They are used to describe and define all the pieces needed for a description of the situation under scrutiny.
Many nodes are used as described in Analytica manuals. However, there are also special colours and shapes representing features that are important for pyrkilo diagrams. See Description of each node for more details. You can see the definitions and descriptions by clicking or double-clicking the nodes.408,124,-1400,1162,402,92,530,558Read more about pyrkiloUnderstanding of a particular risk develops simultaneously at various levels and using differently structured methods. At one end there is a "discussion layer": political and public discussions about risks of a hazard with a wide interest on e.g. economical consequences of available decision options, public health, and social justification equity. This discussion is sometimes poorly structured and does not give scientists or risk assessors clear questions that could be answered by scientific methods. At the other end there is a "modelling layer": models dealing with specific questions such as air concentrations of a pollutant from a specific source or risk-benefit analyses of particular actions. The models are complex and use several assumptions that are not abvious to outsiders.
There is a need for methods facilitating the flow of information and understanding between the existing layers. Pyrkilo (from the Finnish word pyrki, to aim at) diagrams aim at offering an interface between the two disciplines. The principle is to describe a risk situation in a formal manner. It is an enhanced causal diagram that contains items along the causal pathway (or network) from e.g. emissions to dispersion to exposure to effects. It has been designed to describe also other than causal connections such as values, preferences, and arguments.
The pyrkilo method has several objecitves. The structure is relatively easily understandable and readable. It has a basic structure similar to but simpler than mathematical causal models. Translation into a natural language or mathematical model is relatively easy, as is required from an interface. The diagram is fast to build with little data, and the critical parts of the diagram can subsequently be developed into a full-scale model. It is easy to expand into new areas, as the political discussion proceeds. Because of its structured and formal nature, it requires that many assumptions are made explicit unlike in political rhetoric, and therefore it is easier to identify possibly illogical or conflicting issues. It can be used to explore the validity or importance of an aspect before it is brought into the other discipline of heavy modelling or political discourse.

Description.abstract In their Report ÒGlobal assessment of organic contaminants in farmed salmon,Ó R. A. Hites and co-workers analyzed wild and farmed salmon samples from North and South America and Europe for organic pollutants (9 Jan. 2004, p. 226). The authors conclude that, because of chemical contaminants, farmed salmon should not be eaten more often than 0.25 to 1 times per month. However, the model used does not take into account any beneficial effects of eating fish. We analyzed both risks and benefits. We also performed a value-of-information analysis to see which uncertainties were relevant for decision-making. This is the version 4 of the model calculating risks and benefits of farmed salmon.
