¹ Estimated by MIXTRAN and DISTRIB V2.1 macros using usual intake methodology from the National Cancer institute (NCI); ² Unweighted sample sizes. Includes only adults who reported consuming any seafood in the past 30 days; ³ Means within each category were compared to the corresponding reference group using Z test; ⁴ Reference group within category; ⁵ Income was defined as the ratio of income to poverty; household income divided by federal poverty guidelines; ⁶ Categories do not add up to total due to missing data; ⁷ Categories do not add up to total because “other Hispanic” and “other race” were not included in the analyses.
