NORA construction sector: Proportionate mortality ratio (PMR) adjusted for age, sex, and race for selected work-related respiratory conditions, U.S. residents age 15 and over, selected states and years, 1990-1999

NORA - National Occupational Research Agenda
- indicates no PMR was calculated because there were fewer than 5 deaths. * data for malignant mesothelioma are for 1999 only.

Note: The sum of the individual and all other condition death totals may be greater than the total number of deaths in the selected states and years because some decedents have more than one condition listed on their death certificates. See selected limitations for general cautions regarding inferences based on small numbers of deaths, and see appendices for source description, methods, ICD codes, industry and occupation codes, industrial sector groupings, and list of selected states and years.
