*Adjusted RR and OR for a male birth for a given increase in PCB concentration from the 10th to the 90th percentile: Child Health and Development Study, 1964–67. Estimates adjusted for specimen characteristics and an indicator of a prescription for sex steroids, oral contraceptives or corticosteroids. †Sum of PCB #105, 110, 118, 137, 138, 153, 170, 180, 187. | ||||||
