OR: odds ratio; aOR: adjusted OR; TBARS: thiobarbituric acid reactive substances; BPA: bisphenol A; CI: confidence intervals. 1 Adjusted for urinary creatinine (mg/dL); 2 adjusted for urinary creatinine (mg/dL), age (yr), and body mass index (kg/m2); 3 adjusted for urinary creatinine (mg/dL), age (yr), body mass index (kg/m2), parity (nulliparous/primiparous or multiparous) and residence (rural or suburban/urban).
