“…In this study, the average number of employees was used as an indicator for mine size, classified in three categories as small, medium, and large with a number of employees less than 50, between 50 and 100, and more than 100, correspondingly Blackley et al 2014;Shekarian et al 2021b). Furthermore, coal seams were categorized into three different groups based on the average seam height as thin (less than 40 inches), medium (i.e., between 40 and 75 inches), and thick (more than 75 inches).…”

“…Here, this can be interpreted as the overall effect of mining operation, mine size, geographic location, coal rank, and coal seam thickness on CWP disease among coal miners in the U. S. coal mines during 1986-2018. GEE has been widely used for panel estimation (Pang 2017;Shah et al 2017;Shekarian et al 2021b). This method provided the best fit for our data.…”
