Our results are roughly consistent with those of several studies that have reported only to 12 months after treatment initiation.
The frequency of lineage-mixing within our set is roughly consistent with a Poisson distribution of a mean rate of about 1 in 10, as 5 out of 66 samples exhibit mixed lineage origins.
While we do not have national data on the distribution of physicians by years of practice, 42% of physicians are over the age of 55y in Canada, and 68.1% are over 45y, suggesting that our sample is roughly consistent with national physician demographics [ 11].
The initial continental age is estimated on the basis of heat flow in the back-arc region, so that our modeling results are roughly consistent with the observed heat flow in this area.
Thus, our experimental results are roughly consistent with this probabilistic estimate.
According to our result, it was roughly consistent with these previous studies.
That said, our estimated prices were roughly consistent with the Truven study, which did have access to claims-based prices paid.
Interestingly, our slope estimate is roughly consistent with the risk of lung cancer mortality related to long-term population-based exposure to EC previously estimated by Janssen et al. (2011) based on a conversion of black smoke to EC for two European studies.
The extent of the large near-surface slips in our source model (Fig. 4) is roughly consistent with the extent of the observed large surface ruptures.
