No external funding was received for the analysis, the research supporting the analysis, nor the time needed to prepare the article. Furthermore, the work product, including but not limited to the study design, results and conclusions drawn, is exclusively those of the authors, and no party to asbestos or talc litigation reviewed this paper prior to its publication.
