aAdjusted for laboratory plate, maternal age, maternal education.

bAdjusted for laboratory plate, maternal age, maternal education, maternal race/ethnicity (White non-Hisp., White Hisp., Other).

*

Reference category (CAT1) only includes signals at the MDL. Values above the MDL divided into 3 equal-sized categories based on control values.

**

Reference category (LOW) includes all signals above but close to the minimum observed value for the assay, with remaining values lumped into one higher category.

Bold means statistically significant.
