Definition
Causality
List of parents:
- Baseline intelligence quotient (IQ) score in children

- Methyl mercury intake from fish in Beneris
- ERF of methyl mercury on intelligence quotient
- ERF of omega-3 fatty acids on intelligence quotient
Unit
IQ points
Formula
UniNet formula:
Baseline_IQ+ER_MeHg_fish_intake*(MeHg_Intake_Fish_PrWomen-Average_MeHg_Intake_Fish_PrWomen)+ER_DHA_Fish_Intake*(DHA_Intake_Fish_PrWomen-Average_DHA_Intake_Fish_PrWomen)
Result
| Mean value | Standard deviation | |
|---|---|---|
| IQ score in children | 100.09 | 14.973 |
