represents variability explained by the fixed effects; represents variability explained by both fixed and random effects.
The β estimate for chlorpyrifos reflects % increase in TCPy per ng/m3 increase in the chlorpyrifos air concentration.
The β estimate for women working in agriculture reflects % increase in TCPy expected for women in agriculture compared to those not in agriculture.
The unadjusted estimates (95% CI) from the regression for the intercept=0.16 (0.09, 0.23), and for each ng increase in chlorpyrifos concentration=1.46 (0.38, 2.55).
