Figure 2

Adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals comparing imidacloprid exposure of all children with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) to that of typically developing (typically developing) controls. This sensitivity analysis varies sensitivity (Sens) and false positive probability (FPP, 1-specificity) priors used in the Bayesian models assuming known exposure misclassification (certain misclassification models). Models are broken into four groups; 1: sensitivity and FPP are greater among controls; 2: sensitivity and FPP are equal between cases and controls (non-differential misclassification); 3: sensitivity and FPP are greater among cases; 4: sensitivity greater among cases, FPP is equal between cases and controls.
