Correlation analysis of exposure and outcome variables for all volunteers.
| Spearman’s ρ (P value) | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Drinking Water As < 1 μg/L (n = 109) | Drinking Water As1–10 μg/L (n = 77) | Drinking Water As > 10 μg/L (n = 21) | Full range(n = 207) | |
| Drinking Water As vs Urinary Total As | 0.19 (P = 0.048) | 0.36 (P = 0.001) | 0.55 (P = 0.009) | 0.36 (P < 0.001) |
| Drinking Water As vs U-AsIMM | 0.18 (P = 0.060) | 0.38 (P < 0.001) | 0.69 (P < 0.001) | 0.58 (P < 0.001) |
| Drinking Water As vs Osmolality Adjusted U-AsIMM | 0.21 (P = 0.031) | 0.49 (P < 0.001) | 0.81 (P < 0.001) | 0.62 (P < 0.001) |
A strong correlation (bold font) is only observed for U-AsIMM (osmolality adjusted) for drinking water As >10 μg/L. All household volunteers were included in analyses.
