For each exposure factor endpoint type (first column on the left),
a series of endpoint values is presented in the next four columns.
These fields are the:
- Endpoint Value: the mean value or other numerical or textual description for the exposure factor, as specified in the citation. The term,
"see citation," indicates that exposure factor values are presented in a figure.
"Review" indicates the citation is a secondary source that contains a collection of exposure factor values.
- Error: the error term associated with the endpoint value, if reported (SE = standard error of the mean; SD = standard deviation of the mean; 95% CI = 95% confidence interval for the mean).
- Range: the minimum and maximum values for the endpoint value, if reported
- Units: associated units for the endpoint value, error or range values.
The next three columns contain the additional information about the dataset: the
Sex and Life Stage of the animals that were studied and the Location
of the study [laboratory (Lab) or California county; CA or state/country]. The lettered
Note contains a string of the remaining description and remarks for the dataset.
Some of these fields may be blank for a particular dataset and will not appear in the Note.
The order of information in the Note are as follows:
- Description: a more specific textual description of the endpoint that was
measured
- Sample Size (N=): the number of animals from which data were collected
- Age-Specific (Age=): the age of the animal at the time data were collected
- Condition (Condition =): modifying factors that may influence the exposure factor such as activity, breeding or feeding status
- Season/Month: time of year data were collected
- Location-Specific: the location where the data or animals were
collected
- Remarks: general comments about the dataset.
