Adjusting for age, race, BMI, total physical activity, smoking status, education, organic fruit and vegetable consumption frequency, years and season of urine sample collections, and residential pesticide use history.
Including 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol, 2-isopropyl-4-methyl-6-hydroxy-pyrimidine, and para-nitrophenol. Due to presence of interfering compounds in 19 samples for IMPY, only 158 samples (from 88 men) were available for molar sum organophosphate metabolite analysis.
P-value < 0.05 compared with men in the lowest quartile of intake.
Estimated using median intake in each quartile as a continuous variable.
