在癌症和接触的其他延迟效应的职业流行病学研究中，允许延长的疾病诱发和潜伏时间是一个重要的考虑因素。评估延长的诱导期和潜伏期的两种有用方法是（1）暴露滞后和（2）仅考虑移动时间窗内的暴露。Jahr 2提出的评估暴露负担的暴露加权方案是另一种解释诱导和潜伏期的方法，尽管没有明确说明。 这三种方法，这是暴露加权的特殊情况下，说明了一个石棉纺织厂的工人队列中的肺癌死亡率的分析。
Allowance for prolonged disease induction and latency times is an important consideration in occupational epidemiology studies of cancer and other delayed effects of exposure. Two useful approaches for assessing prolonged induction and latency periods are (1) exposure lagging and (2) considering exposures only within moving time windows. The exposure weighting scheme proposed by Jahr2 to assess exposure burdens is another method that accounts for induction and latency, although not explicitly. These three approaches, which are shown to be special cases of exposure weighting, are illustrated with an analysis of lung cancer mortality among a cohort of workers from an asbestos textile plant.
