Note: Difference (95% confidence interval) in outcome -score per quartile increase in all perfluoroalkyl substances estimated using quantile g-computation. Adjusted for maternal age at delivery, midpregnancy BMI, race/ethnicity, household income, parity, prenatal vitamin use, average blood lead concentration, and child age at follow-up. Models for the overall population are additionally adjusted for child sex and child sex by child age at follow-up. Missing covariate information accounted for using single stochastic imputation by chained equations. Note: BMC, bone mineral content; BMI, body mass index.
