Table 5.

Associations between limb abnormalities and mixture exposure of Pb, Cd, Hg, Se, Mn.

  adjusted OR 95%CI p-value Sum of positive coefficient Sum of negative coefficient
All congenital limb abnormalities 0.85 0.72 1.02 0.073 0 −0.16
All polydactylies 0.92 0.72 1.17 0.497 0.03 −0.12
All syndactylies 0.83 0.63 1.11 0.207 0.02 −0.20

The adjusted odds ratio are interpreted as the effect on limb abnormalities of increasing every one quantile unit of mixture exposure of Pb, Cd, Hg, Se, and Mn in quantile g-computation.

Adjusted for maternal age (categorical), maternal smoking (categorical), maternal alcohol intake (categorical), paternal smoking (categorical), infant sex.
