Figure 2

Concentration of methylmercury in brain related to concentration of total-Hg in toenails. Concentration of methylmercury in occipital lobe cortex (CMeHg-Brain; μg Hg/kg) related to concentration of total-Hg in toenails (CHg-Toenail; μg Hg/kg). The equation for the regression line was CMeHg-Brain = 0.017 × CHg-toenail + 1.5, and the correlation coefficient was 0.586 (n = 29, p = 0.001).
