Human monitoring data from data
Human monitoring data characterise human exposure to substances, their metabolites in body fluids or tissues. In Figure 94, the positive (> zero) human monitoring concentrations for a number of pesticides in urine (morning) are visualised through summary statistics.
Find in Figure 95, boxplots for all human monitoring concentrations of 13 pesticides in urine (morning).
Note that all statistics are weighted using sampling weights.
Selection on sampling method
The dropdown menu displays the available sampling methods as defined in the data source. Select one or more sampling methods here to include them in the action.
Filter on repeated measurements
This option is only available when the survey contains two or more measurements or time points. It allows for the restriction of the action to one measurement to prevent the combination of unrelated samples. If there is only one measurement in the survey or if this option is not selected, all measurements are included in the action.
Excluded substances from sampling method
Use this option to remove all samples of substances that are of no interest or have incomplete samples. This option can be combined with the “Use complete analysed samples” option. When “Use complete analysed samples” is selected, the resulting dataset might become very small due to some substances not being analysed. Excluding these non-analysed substances will result in a larger dataset.
Use complete analysed samples
Select this option to remove samples from individuals for whom one or more of the selected substances have not been analysed.
Use sampling weights
If checked, individual sampling weights are used. If unchecked, the individual sampling weights are not used in the calculations.
