The results for ∑LMW metabolites ( p = 0.01) appear to be driven by MEP, because MBP was only borderline significant ( p = 0.068), and MiBP was not significant.

As in our study, Ferguson and colleagues [ 4 ] report a highly significant positive relationship between phthalate metabolites with 8-isoprostane in pregnant women.
For DEHP metabolites, there was a suggestive trend of increasing isoprostane levels with higher metabolite concentrations, but the associations did not reach statistical significance when metabolites were considered individually.
p -values less than 0.05 were considered significant, and p -values less than 0.10 were reported as marginally significant. 3.
