Notes.

a

Adjusted for baseline tumor size (cm), age (years), urinary creatinine (mg/l), and urinary cotinine for arsenic and phthalates (μg/l).

b

%MEHP = 100 × (MEHP/(MEHP + MEOHP + MEHHP)) on a molar basis.

MBP
mono butyl phthalate
MBzP
mono benzyl phthalate
MEHP
mono (2-ethylhexyl) phthalate
MEOHP
mono (2-ethyl-5-oxohexyl) phthalate
MEHHP
