The measure was modeled in quartiles.
Results for PM exposures modeled in quartiles were consistent with monotonic relationships.
For the main analysis, exposure was modeled in quartiles of PFC concentration, with quartiles formed in the population overall and separately for the age/sex group used in the analysis.

Energy-adjusted acrylamide intake during pregnancy, modeled continuously or in quartiles, was significantly associated with SGA, with an adjusted odds ratio (OR) among all women of 1.11 (95% CI: 1.02, 1.21) for the highest quartile of acrylamide intake compared with the lowest quartile (Table 3).
The associations of dietary patterns and quality scores with BC risk were evaluated using separate conditional logistic regression models, both in quartiles and as a continuous term (per s.d. increment).
In addition, we modeled quartiles of exposure as an ordinal variable (0, 1, 2, 3) and used the p-value of the resulting coefficient as a test of linear trend.
A test model in which quartiles of exposure were created from total GHGE and land use divided by total energy intake, GHGE/k Jand m/kJ, showed very similar results (results not shown).
These season-adjusted serum 25(OH D values were introduced as continuous variable in the logistic regression models, or classified in quartiles based on the distribution of the entire cohort, where the first quartile served as reference category.
