Risks settings¶
Calculation settings¶
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
Multiple substances analysis |
Specifies whether the assessment involves multiple substances. |
Express results in terms of reference substance equivalents (cumulative) |
Specifies whether the assessment involves multiple substances and results should be cumulated over all substances. |
Health effect type |
Specifies whether the health effect is a risk (negative) or benefit (positive). |
Risk metric type |
Report risks in terms of hazard index (HI = 1/MOE) or margin of exposure. |
Left margin safety plot |
Left margin of the plot for margins of exposure or hazard indices. |
Right margin safety plot |
Right margin of the plot for margins of exposure of hazard indices. |
Show equivalent animal dose output |
Specifies whether equivalent animal doses should be reported in the output. |
Threshold safety plot |
Threshold for interpretation in the margin of exposure or hazard index plot, e.g. MOE = HI = 1 or MOE = 100. |
Inclusion percentage variability interval |
The central percentage of the variability distribution to include in intervals for exposure, hazard and MOE (e.g. 90 means p5-p95). |
Number of plot labels |
Maximum number of labels to plot in hazard vs exposure plot. |
Number of substances |
Maximum number of substances to plot in hazard vs exposure plot. |
Use inverse distribution to calculate percentile |
Calculate percentile via the complementary percentage of the inverse distribution (default: no). Description: E.g., P0.1 of MOE distribution is calculated via P99.9 of 1/MOE distribution. Note: This option is provided because percentile calculation in small data sets is asymmetric in both tails. |
Target level |
Select to express hazard characterisations at external or internal exposure level. |
Risk type |
The type of exposure considered in the assessment; acute (short term) or chronic (long-term). |
