Figure 1From: Economic evaluation of health consequences of prenatal methylmercury exposure in France Loss of IQ points according to HHg concentrations based on linear and log models. Figure1 displays the comparison of IQ decrements associated with HHg concentrations based on a linear model in red lines and a logarithm model in blue lines. In the first, estimates of IQ point loss are presented for the three cut–off points 0.58, 1.0 and 2.5 μg/g and for the maximum (i.e. the Percentile P99.5, extreme value excluded) for the three samples. In the log model, IQ point losses are given above 0.58 μg/g. And, we assumed no IQ loss below the three cut-off points.Back to article page
