  • 1-151 Multilevel Poisson models that reduce the most unexplained variation, including only significant variables.

  • 1-152 Estimated coefficients.

  • 1-153 Relative risks.

  • 1-154 The relative risks for the age and sex variables in the rural fringe and urban models cannot be presented here because there is an interaction between the two variables please refer to table 2.
