Model 1 adjustments: age, gender, parental education, height-for-age z-score, hemoglobin concentration and examination year.
Model 2 adjustments: Model 1 + cohabitation with a floricultural worker pesticide use within the residential property lot, neighbor use of pesticides on their property, and examination date (days after a peak exposure period).
