We review the literature on the combined effect of asbestos exposure and smoking on lung cancer, and explore a Bayesian approach to assess evidence of interaction. Previous approaches have focussed on separate tests for an additive or multiplicative relation. We extend these approaches by exploring the strength of evidence for either relation using approaches which allow the data to choose between both models. We then compare the different approaches.
我们回顾了关于石棉暴露与吸烟对肺癌联合影响的文献，并探索一种贝叶斯方法来评估相互作用的证据。以往的方法主要集中于对相加或相乘关系的单独检验。我们通过使用允许数据在两种模型之间进行选择的方法来探索这两种关系的证据强度，从而扩展了这些方法。然后我们比较不同的方法。
