Fig 3. Differences in five-year body weight change per doubling of phthalate metabolite concentrations, by baseline obesity status.

Fig 3.

Results were based on 5279 observations from 502 women who were normal/underweight, 4313 observations from 407 women who had overweight, and 4788 observations from 460 women who had obesity. Differences were adjusted for age at baseline (1999/2000), race/ethnicity, the interaction between race/ethnicity and time, site, education level, daily dietary energy intake at baseline, and time-varying physical activity, smoking status, menopausal status, and use of hormone therapy. ∑LMW phthalates = molar sum of MEP, MnBP, and MiBP; ∑DEHP = molar sum of MEHP, MEHHP, MEOHP, and MECPP; ∑HMW phthalates = molar sum of MEHP, MEHHP, MEOHP, MECPP MBzP, MCOP, MCNP, and MCPP. * = p-value < 0.05.
