Adjusted for age, sex, maternal education (none/primary, secondary, >secondary), monthly household income (<3000 pesos, ≥3000 pesos, unknown/no response), participant smoking status (never, former [not in past month], current [at least once in past month]), BMI, systolic blood pressure and natural log blood lead.
p-Value for trend based on Wald test from regression model in which quartile medians were entered.Quartiles 1, 2 and 3 cut-points are as follows: <0.149, <0.237, and <0.371 for cadmium in μg/L; <0.149, <0.220, and <0.333 for cadmium in μg/g creatinine; <0.233, <0.328, and <0.511 for cadmium in μg/μOsm/kg; <0.209, <0.332, and <0.453 for thallium in μg/L; <0.192, <0.269, <0.378 for thallium in μg/g creatinine; <0.318, <0.417, and <0.550 for thallium in μg/μOsm/kg; <0.025, <0.044, and <0.076 for uranium in μg/L; <0.026, <0.042, and <0.061 for uranium in μg/g creatinine; <0.039, <0.062, and <0.098 for uranium in μg/μOsm/kg.β reflects the difference in serum creatinine and cystatin C comparing metal quartiles 2–4 to the lowest quartile.
