Not only did Nair et al. calculate an ERR of less than zero, the upper 95% confidence level was less than the ERR calculated from A-bomb survivor studies (Nair et al. 2009); this result is consistent with a significant dose-rate effect whereby the effects of a dose received slowly over time are substantially reduced relative to the same dose received acutely.
