Figure 2.

Figures 2A and 2B are ribbon plus line graphs titled Systolic blood pressure lowercase z score and Diastolic blood pressure lowercase z score, plotting Prenatal carbon monoxide (interquartile range) association with blood pressure, ranging from negative 0.5 to 1.0 in increments of 0.5 (y-axis) across Gestational age (weeks), ranging from 10 to 40 in increments of 10 (x-axis), respectively.

Time-varying associations between prenatal household air pollution exposure, as represented by personal carbon monoxide (CO), and resting (A) systolic blood pressure (SBP) and (B) diastolic BP (DBP) z-scores at 4 years of age in the GRAPHS intervention study, Ghana. The multivariable model 1 (n=1,654 observations from n=640 children) adjusted for child sex and BMI; maternal ethnicity, secondhand tobacco smoke exposure and enrollment BP; and household asset index. The y-axis represents the time-varying association between BP z-score and an interquartile (IQR) increase in CO exposure; the x-axis depicts gestational age in weeks at CO measurement. The solid line shows the predicted estimate, and the shaded area represents the 95% CI. A sensitive window was identified when the CIs did not include zero. Data are included in Excel Table S1.
