Question

What are the dioxin concentrations in the Finnish population? Indices used: congener, age, sex, fish consumtion...

Rationale

The dioxin concentration is a function of the following inputs:

• Actual measured concentrations in two studies: KTL sarcoma study and WHO mother's milk study. The data are indexed by congener c, individual i, year y, sex s and weight w. Only c and i are marginals in the data.
• Fish intake and other food intake from questionnaires. The data come from KTL sarcoma study. Indices i, food type f (includes fish species). Both i and f are marginals.
• Dioxin concentrations in fish from the study EU-kalat 1&2. Indices f, pooled fish sample p. Both f and p are marginals.
• Dioxin concentrations in food from the food basket study. Index f, which is marginal.
