Subject: RE: Request for additional information on Lanphear et al.
(2000)

Dear Young, 

  

We are able to provide you with the additional information that you
requested.  Specifically, the geometric mean (standard error) for the
subsets <10 ug/dl, <7.5, <5, and <2.5 are 1.8 (0.07), 1.8 (0.07), 1.7
(0.06), and 1.2 (0.03) respectively. 

  

I hope this is of help to you. 

  

Sincerely, 

Peggy Auinger

Subject: Request for additional information on Lanphear et al. (2000) 

Dear Drs. Dietrich and Auinger, 

As a follow-up to my conversation with Dr. Dietrich, here is the e-mail 

specifying the additional information we would like to request from 

Lanphear et al. (2000).  The paper states that the geometric mean blood 

lead concentration for the study population was 1.9 ug/dL.  Can you 

please provide us with the geometric mean (SD) blood lead concentrations

for the subsets <10 ug/dL, <7.5 ug/dL, <5 ug/dL, and 2.5 ug/dL as well? 

As you are aware, the Pb NAAQS review is on a very tight court-ordered 

deadline.  We would greatly appreciate your prompt response. 

Many thanks, 

Young
