OR and 95% CI estimated using logistic regression model referenced by the first quartile group of urinary BPA level. b OR and 95% CI estimated using logistic regression model referenced by the first quartile group of urinary BPA level adjusted for age, sex, paternal and maternal educational level, and household income level. c OR and 95% CI estimated using logistic regression model referenced by the first quartile group of urinary BPA level adjusted for age, sex, paternal and maternal educational level, household income level, and current exposure to secondhand smoke.
