Urinary bisphenol A and plasma hormone concentrations in male workers exposed to bisphenol A diglycidyl ether and mixed organic solvents

Table 2

Standardised partial regression coefficients between selected serum hormones and urinary metabolites in spray workers and controls

Hormones
LH (mIU/ml) FSH (mIU/ml) Free testosterone (pg/ml)
Metabolites r p r p r p
Log translated values were used for metabolites and hormone levels. Standardised partial regression coefficients were adjusted for age and alcohol drinking habits.
*Half the detection limit was used for a subject whose urinary metabolite was not detected.
Bisphenol A (μmol/mol creatinine) −0.05 0.65 −0.23 0.045 −0.15 0.17
o-Cresol (μmol/mol creatinine) −0.05 0.64 −0.03 0.82 −0.13 0.23
Methylhippuric acids* (μmol/mol creatinine) −0.01 0.90 −0.07 0.56 0.19 0.08
2-butoxyacetic acid* (mmol/mol creatinine) −0.02 0.88 −0.18 0.12 −0.06 0.61
