Trends of linear regression model (12) fitted to mortality rate difference [current smokers–former smokers] (/105 /year) with explanatory variables (a) numbers of stem-cell divisions per year, (b) log10[cumulative number of stem-cell divisions], (c) extra risk score (ERS) and (d) log10[number of stem-cells], using data of Tomasetti and Vogelstein [2], as in Table 2.
