... report and are appropriate to synthe size the scientific evidence and quantitate estimates of toxicity. The committee will comment on  The approach to prioritizing health outcomes,  The clarity and appropriateness of the systematic review methods,  Whether potential health effects from early life exposures are adequately addressed,  The feasibility of using mode-of-action information to inform dose-response analyses,  The hierarchical, Bayesian meta-regression approach to develop point estimates and confidence intervals,  The use of common intake values to support inclusion of more studies in the dose-response analysis, 2
