Table 4.

Estimated percent difference in FeNOa associated with an increaseb in each TRP exposure metric.

Exposure Percent difference (95% CI) p-Value
Distance: freeway –0.15 (–1.48 to 1.21) 0.83
Distance: major road –0.72 (–1.82 to 0.39) 0.20
Length all roads: 50-m buffer 2.84 (–2.45 to 8.42) 0.30
Length local roads: 50-m buffer 4.75 (–0.68 to 10.49) 0.09
Length all roads: 100-m buffer 5.07 (0.03 to 10.37) 0.05
Length local roads: 100-m buffer 6.02 (0.72 to 11.60) 0.03
Length all roads: 200-m buffer 4.80 (–0.42 to 10.29) 0.07
Length local roads: 200-m buffer 6.84 (1.10 to 12.90) 0.02
Density: 150-m buffer 0.36 (–1.00 to 1.73) 0.61
Density: 300-m buffer 0.06 (–0.88 to 1.01) 0.90
CALINE4 NOx: freeway –0.32 (–1.38 to 0.76) 0.56
CALINE4 NOx: nonfreeway –0.63 (–3.39 to 2.21) 0.66
Predicted NO –2.59 (–6.88 to 1.90) 0.25
Predicted NO2 –1.17 (–8.60 to 6.87) 0.77
Predicted NOx –1.08 (–3.98 to 1.90) 0.48
aAdjusted for race/ethnicity, sex, asthma status, asthma medication, rhinitis history, age at collection, BMI percentile, secondhand tobacco smoke, parental education, month and hour of FeNO collection, outdoor testing, and community of residence. bExposure contrasts: 500 m for distance to freeway; 200 m for distance to major road; 100 m, 300 m, and 1,000 m for length of roads in a 50-m, 100-m, and 200-m buffer, respectively; 10,000 vehicles/day for traffic densities; 5 ppb for CALINE4 predicted NOx; and 10 ppb for intracommunity predictions of NO, NO2, and NOx.
