Parameter values are in centimeters for height and kilograms for weight. Model terms not shown: Intercept, Age Group (bottom three models for each dependent variable). No significant relationships with lnIgE, either alone or in interaction, were found for Sum4-SR, and no significant relationships with lnCRP, either alone or in interaction, were found for Weight-UR, BMI-UR, or Sum4-SR (not shown).
