There was a mistake in Figure 1 as published. In the Exclusions section of Figure 1, “Miss data of urinary triclosan or methyl paraben (N = 3,348)” has been revised to “Miss data of methyl paraben (N = 3,348)”.

Figure 1.

Flowchart illustrating the selection process for a study from the NHANES 2005-2006 dataset consisting of 10,348 individuals. Initially, 1,289 participants were considered after exclusions for being under 18, missing data on indoor allergens, cadmium or mercury, and methyl paraben. Further exclusions for missing allergy-related outcomes and covariates reduced the sample to 1,065 participants.
