- Multiple linear regression models to assess the associations between serum total concentrations of PCBs and pesticides with serum total concentrations of lipids and its fractions after adjustment.
- Model 1: The estimates are adjusted for age (as well as age quadratic), race, gender, BMI, alcohol consumption, smoking and exercising status, but results for total PCBs are not adjusted for total pesticides and results for total pesticides are not adjusted for total PCBs.
- Model 2: The estimates are adjusted for age (as well as age quadratic), race, gender, BMI, alcohol consumption, smoking and exercising status, but with additional adjustment for total PCBs for the pesticide results and for total pesticides for the PCB results.
- SP R22 – Type II semi-partial R2.
