Healthy Worker Effect Phenomenon: Revisited with Emphasis on Statistical Methods - A Review.
Chowdhury R, Shah D, Payal AR. Chowdhury R, et al. Indian J Occup Environ Med. 2017 Jan-Apr;21(1):2-8. doi: 10.4103/ijoem.IJOEM_53_16. Indian J Occup Environ Med. 2017. PMID: 29391741 Free PMC article. Review.
