a: Spearman rank correlations between fecal androgen concentrations determined by RIA and by LC/MS/MS. Significant correlations are highlighted in bold; note that after multiple testing using the method of Benjamini and Hochberg, the thresholds for significant p-values are lower than 0.05 (see Supplemental Material).

b: Spearman rank correlations between fecal estrogen concentrations determined by RIA and by LC/MS/MS. Significant correlations are highlighted in bold; note that after multiple testing using the method of Benjamini and Hochberg, the thresholds for significant p-values are lower than 0.05 (see Supplemental Material).
