aModeled as specific gravity adjusted urinary arsenic
1Crude
2Adjusted for season, sex, maternal education, household possessions, HOME score, hemoglobin, blood lead concentrations, hair manganese concentrations
3Further adjusting for school clusters; achievement scores divided into tertiles; the OR represents the likelihood of moving from lower to higher tertile of achievement endpoint.
