Documentation on TUMOR Data. [Full Doc]

• Potency /tumor incidence: potency of each agent to reduce the incidence of intestinal adenoma & adenocarcinoma.
• Tumor percent inhibition: % reduction of colonic tumor incidence.
• Cancer percent inhibition: % reduction of colon cancer incidence.
• Potency /multiplicity: potency to reduce the number of colonic tumors per rat.
• Raw data: actual numbers of tumor bearing rats in control group and treated group.
  ! Potency cannot be accurately estimated when few control animals have a tumor: studies with less than 8 tumors are tagged with a "!". See also: ! * +
• Ranking: Agents are ranked by potency. The table can be sorted on other criteria (e.g., agents).
  To change sorting, click on column heading (once: up, twice: down), or use the "select" box at table bottom.
• Also shown: Agent name, dose, and class;
  Reference: author's name links to PubMed abstract;
