Unadjusted and adjusted change in infant birth weight z-score with a 10-fold increase in average prenatal urinary phthalate metabolite concentrationsa
Monoethyl phthalate (MEP), Mono-n-butyl phthalate (MBP) and Mono-iso-butyl phthalate (MiBP), Mono-3-carboxypropyl phthalate (MCPP), Monobenzyl phthalate (MBzP). Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (ΣDEHP) metabolites is the sum of Mono(2-ethyl-5-hydroxyhexyl) phthalate (MEHHP), Mono(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), Mono(2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl) phthalate (MEOHP) and Mono(2-ethyl-5-carboxypentyl) phthalate (MECPP).
