In England and Wales, the categories ‘low’ and ‘middle’ educated could not be separated, and were classified as ‘low’. In Austria and France, data for high educated women were excluded, because the number of lung cancer deaths in the period 1990–1994 was smaller than 10, which resulted in unreliable estimates. Rates are expressed in deaths per 100 000 person-years.
