Table 3. Adjusted Overall Effects of Lipophilic POP Mixtures and Percent Changes at 6 Months and at Five Years Among Patients in the Teen-LABS Study Using Quantile G-Computation, 2007–2012a.
| BP percent changes | percent changes at 6 months | percent changes at five years |
|---|---|---|
| SBP | 3.52% (−4.24%, 11.3%) | 6.4% (0.4%, 12.4%) |
| DBP | –1.17% (−10.9%, 8.53%) | 4.6% (−4.31%, 13.5%) |
| MAP | 0.85% (−7.28%, 8.98%) | 5.46% (−1.48%, 12.4%) |
| pulse pressure | 12.4% (−2.31%, 27.2%) | 8.95% (−3.36%, 21.3%) |

Note: Coefficients represent overall mixture effects of a simultaneous one quartile increase in all lipophilic POP concentrations from quantile g-computation models. Models were adjusted for race/ethnicity (non-Hispanic white, others), age at baseline (continuous), patient’s sex (male, female), parents’ annual income (<$25,000, $25,000 to $74,999, ≥75,000, unknown), and BMI at baseline (continuous). Abbreviations: POP, persistent organic pollutant; SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; and MAP, mean arterial pressure.
