Stepwise multiple logistic regression analysis of ASD, adjusted for the geographical areas studied (high and low pesticide exposure) and gender.
| Risk Factor | OR * | OR (95% CI) | p Value * | |
|---|---|---|---|---|

| Male | 2.41 | 2.21–2.62 | <0.001 |
* Models were adjusted for the following variables: age, sex (1: male, 0: female), environmental pesticide exposure (1: areas of high pesticide use, 0: areas of low pesticide use).
