Model 1 includes individual exposure and response variables.
Model 2 includes the individual exposures and response and demographic covariates (age, sex, asthma diagnosis, current employment in agriculture, lives with someone currently employed in agriculture).
Model 3 is exposure and response plus demographic covariates, and meteorological covariates (temperature and relative humidity).
All model estimates are scaled by the IQR of the relevant exposure, with the exception of total DE, which had an IQR of 0.
January n = 74.
June n = 75.
