Table 3. Crude and adjusted hazard ratio (95% CIs) for the association between in utero arsenic exposure and child mortality.
| Model | Urinary total arsenic (μg/g creatinine) | ||
|---|---|---|---|

| |||
| 17 – 555 (n=249) | 556 – 3,712 (n=234) | P value | |
| Unadjusted | 1 (ref) | 1.72 (0.71, 4.16) | 0.23 |
| Adjusted for maternal age | 1 (ref) | 1.72 (0.71, 4.15) | 0.23 |
| Fully adjusteda | 1 (ref) | 1.92 (0.78, 4.68) | 0.15 |
Adjusted for maternal age (years), maternal education (years), child sex, BEST treatment assignment, maternal skin lesion severity, and exposure to passive tobacco smoke (yes, no).
