BVCKMR Main Effect Estimates for Each Mixture Component. Estimates for systolic blood pressure are shown on the top row, while estimates for diastolic blood pressure are shown on the bottom row. Plots in the left column show effect estimates for baseline blood pressure measures (age 4), while plots in the right column show effect estimates for the per-year change in blood pressure from age 4 to age 11. Effect estimates represent the difference in the outcome for an interquartile range increase in the specified metal, setting all other metals to their median value. Metals were log2-transformed, mean-centered, and scaled. Models were adjusted for maternal age, maternal education, maternal pre-pregnancy BMI, maternal smoking during pregnancy, child’s sex, child’s age, and child’s height. Abbreviations used: As, arsenic; Cd, cadmium; Co, cobalt; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; Mg, magnesium; Mo, molybdenum; Pb, lead; Sb, antimony; SBP, systolic blood pressure; Se, selenium
