Values shown are median (lines), interquartile range (boxes), and range, excluding extremes and outliers (whiskers). The subjects were allocated into five groups according to the exposure level for all four study groups; however, no Kharkiv subjects were in the lowest exposure group (≤ 250 ng/g lipid).
