As in the previous case the additive effect of exposure is small but, unlike the model for knee height, there is an important gender differential as exposed females lose about 3 cms (about 3 percent of the mean) and the regression coefficient estimate is more than twice its standard error (-2.87 (1.42)). Because the additive effect of exposure in areas of high flu severity and affected by the earthquake implies an average increase in knee height of about 4.72, albeit with a large standard error (2.95), the total effect among females is negative and leads to a loss of 5.68 cms. The total effects of female exposure on knee height are two to three times larger among those who were born in municipios with high flu severity and affected by the earthquake. ./cache/cord-013333-7jx4t0ol.txt ./txt/cord-013333-7jx4t0ol.txt
