MEMORANDUM
SUBJECT: Analysis of NHANES XI Data to Determine The Relationship Between Gasoline Lead and Blood Lead
FROM:
Joel Schwarts Office of Policy Analysis
TO: David Weil ECAO
This paper discusses our attempts to quantify the relationship between gasoline lead and blood lead. That this relationship exists has been settled by the lead isotope experiment in Italy, which indicates that about 8ug/dl of blood lead is due to gasoline in the Turin area. We have attempted to use statistical tech niques to investigate this relationship in the United States both because we needed such knowledge to assess the gasoline lead regu lations (they were recently tightened), and to assess the approxi mate magnitude of the contribution of air lead emissions to blood lead via secondary pathways.
Preliminary assessments were made by regressing local SMSA gasoline lead usuage in Chicago, New York, and Louisville against the results of the lead screening program in those locations. While 450,000 children were screened in New York, 880,000 in Chicago, and over 10,000 in Louisville, these children were not a random sample of the population. Although the sampling rates of 20% per year for black preschool children indicates the bias is

not great, industry hits objected to the drawing of any inferences
from this data. Therefore, we began to analyze the NHANES II data
as Soon as a public tape became available.

Hypothesis Testing Since we had evidence that gasoline lead is a major causal
variable, we engaged in hypothesis testing to determine if inclu sion of other factors could lead us to reject that hypothesis. NCHS had already published material suggesting what demographic data was significant. In addition, we gathered data from FDA on food lead, and discussed in the December 1982 ICF report our reasons for rejecting paint lead as a source of misspeciffeation error. We used monthly lead in gasoline sales as an independent variable and individual blood lead as the dependent variable. It is important to note that since NHANES stands were usually in a given location during two months, this formulation allows us to look at variations in blood lead with time at a single site, as well as between sites.
We first examined a large model with all major demographic variables, some of their interactions among themselves, some of their interactions with gasoline lead, and gasoline. After eliminating some insignificant variables (eg. kid x gas, inside center city x gas, etc.), we arrived at the models 1 and 2 from our December report. In both models gasoline lead explained a large share of blood lead.

-3As we have noted, before, it is important to realise that time is not a causal determinant of blood lead. Unlike processes such as aging, cardiovascular disease, etc., time has no direcV relation ship to blood lead through Inherent entropic processes. Indeed, if we focus on the same age group over time, the only relationship between blood lead and time can be through a direct causal vari able. The only known causal variable that decreased significantly over this four year period was gasoline lead. Therefore, time is included not as an explanatory variable, but as a further test to make sure gasoline lead had a strong enough relationship that it would remain significant even if time was a competing variable. in Table 3 and 4, the insignificant variables are dropped. The gasoline lead coefficient is stable, and its significance increases. Table 4a is a similar run, but has only one month lagged gasoline. It is included to facilitate comparison with other runs we include in this paper that used only one gasoline variable to test hypotheses. Note that even after surregr accounts for the design effect, the F statistic on gasoline when only one gasoline coefficient is included is 116.1. Without including time, mean NHANES gasoline lead accounted for 57% of mean NHANES blood lead, or 8 ug/dl. With time included, gasoline lead still accounted for 43% of blood lead, or 6 ug/dl. The Ethyl Corporation suggested that we test the individual cities where the sampling was performed to see if characteristics of these sites caused the down trend in blood lead, rather than gasoline. Table $ shows the results with dummy variables for all the sites with population over 100,000, and one for the remaining

Since the current month's gasoline lead would have on average only 15 days to affect blo&d lead levels* one would expect it* to have a significant contribution* but a smaller one. by contrast* the previous month's gasoline lead represents emissions an average 15-45 days prior to examination. We would expect this to be more significant* with a noticeably higher coefficient* One would expect gasoline sold* on average 45-75 days previously (i.e. two month lagged gasoline) to be less significant and of lower magni tude than current month gasoline. By contrast* if gasoline sales were merely a proxy for time* all three months should be about equally good* since t* t-1* and t-2 (where t is the month since commencing the survey) equally represent the passage of time.
In fact* the results shown on Table 7 agree with our intui tion based on the physical mechanisms. It does not appear to be consistent with the view that the gasoline coefficient is mostly due to some inexplicable time trend.
Our use of the Department of Energy's monthly sales data for leaded and unleaded gasoline allows us to examine this lag struc ture. The predominant cause of monthly changes in gasoline lead emissions is changes in sales volume. Our data captures both this effect and changes in the leaded-unleaded mix. The only factor that we do not have monthly is the lead content of gaso line* which refiners report quarterly.
As Table 8 indicates* however* this changed little over most of the period. Thus our gasoline variable does represent, as best as possible* the current month's emissions of gasoline lead*

talcing Into account the "pipeline" effect mentioned by Dupont* To the extent that the use of quarterly grains per gallon distorts the data* it should tend to obscure the lag structure* The fact that the lag structure remains apparent even when noise is injected into the explanatory variable is reassuring.
This examination of the lag structure and our understanding of the residence time of lead in the blood suggests that a distri buted lag best explains the relationship between gasoline lead and blood lead* We have chosen a distributed lag model in which the current month's gasoline lead variable has an unconstrained estimated coefficient, a weighted average lagged gasoline lead variable was created using the weighting PBLAG .571PB1 4 .286PB2 4 .143PB3 where the weights go down by one half each month and sum to unity to allow comparison with other gasoline lead estimated coefficients* Decay rates other than 1/2 could have been chosen* but 1/2 was used because (as mentioned above) the half-life of lead in the blood could be about one month* and because when we tested 3 free gasoline lead coefficients PB2 was approximately 1/2 of PB1. The results of using this lagged gasoline exposure variable are shown in tables 10 and 11* Once again gasoline lead is very significant* and accounts for 60 % of blood lead* or 8.46 ug/dl* Subgroup Analysis

regression Analyses on several subgroups* The Decembe%9r.*1982 ICF
report contains separate runs for blacks and whites. In addition. Table 12 shows the results for urban groupings* Table 13 shows the regression results for males* Tables 14 shows the results for children* Running separate regressions for children and adults should avoid any bias due to changes in the number of children. Similarly, changes in urban representation and black representation will not bias the results. These are major groups about whose representa tion the Ethyl Corporation expressed concern* All of these show strong, similar relationships between gasoline lead and blood lead* These results are presented using SURREGR, so the estimated F statistics take account of the Survey design effect* The stability of the gasoline lead coefficient in all of these regres sions suggests a relationship that is large and strong enough to shine through any difficulties introduced by the NHANES survey. It specifically addresses Ethyl's concern that the changing proportion of children and urban residents biased the results. Dr. Firkle of CDC performed similar analyses using quar terly gasoline lead data (gas 1) and two different 6 monthly gas lead variables (gas 2 and gas 3). These results, in slightly dif ferent units, are included in Appendix II. They should ease Dr. Bradley's concern about controlling for subgroups as well* All of these regressions were run in SURREGR, In addition Appendix K of Dr. Pirkle's report to you shows similar regressions with time

-9* Gasoline lead is still highly signi
ficant in these runs they are in Appendix 111 to the back of this
paper.
One or Two Stage Regression One major issue the panel faces in comparing our analysis
with Ethyl's is the question of whether a onex stage or a two stage regression is appropriate. As Or. Draper has pointed out. when the first stage and second stage variables are orthogonal, the results will be the same. Since in this case the first and second stage variables are clearly not orthogonal the question of which approach to follow remains. A two stage regression procedure biases against significance in the second stage variables by over attributing variance to their collinear first stage variables.
For this reason we have adopted a single stage multiple regression
approach. Dr. Bradley indicates that he would have performed a single stage regression, and the use of main effects and interac tion terms, which is what we used in our analysis. Both Drs. Draper and Bradley remark that they would have preferred that the gasoline lead variable be regressed against the individual resid uals for the 10.000 people (as in our one-stage and two-stage regressions) rather than against 55 site average residuals as Ethyl used, the reduction of a 10,000 person sample to 55 data points significantly limits the analysis.
We find several other difficulties with Ethyl's regression. The most important is their failure to use gasoline lead as a
TEH 0533101
DUP050034371
10-
variable in the second stage. Instead, they use population density and annual state-wide gasoline lead divided by^the area of the state. While in a world with constant gasoline usuage pop ulation density nay be a partial proxy for gasoline lead. one would be hard put to find cities where the 50% reduction in gaso line lead usuage over 1976-80 was matched by a SOI drop in popula tion density. This variable is inherently incapable of picking up either changes in unleaded gasoline share (18% to 47% over the period). or the regulatory induced drop in the concentration of lead in leaded gasoline (2.01 g/gal to 1.33 g/gal) over the period. As for annual gasoline lead per state divided by its area, the diversity in the size of states makes this a poor proxy as well. The areas of Arizona and Rhode Island do not adequately represent the relative exposure in Tuscon and Providence. More over. by using annual state lead emissions the Ethyl analysis automatically precludes an analysis relating monthly or seasonal changes in gasoline lead emissions to monthly or seasonal changes in blood lead, predudes any ability of gasoline lead to explain differences in blood lead between two sampling sites in the same state during the same year, and generally deadens the sensitivity of the analysis. Again, since the Ethly analysis also collapsed the residuals into a single value for each site, they eliminated the possibility of explaining month to month blood lead variation at a single site. Moreover, the Ethyl Corporation*s analysis only controls for age. race. sex. and income plus city identifiers.

11
Our models also control for degree of urbanization, and cantor city or suburban residence in an SMSA. Finally, Ethyl.'does not indicate which of their 99 variables are insignificant. Based on our analysis of interaction terms and city dummies, many of the 99 variables they used in their first stage are insignificant. Leaving them in the first stage anyway downwardly biases the estimated coefficients in the second stage.
To test our reasoning that these variables were inapt, we per formed a similar two stage regression. In the first stage we used the dummy variables previously shown to be significant, and the 49 site identifiers. This is almost exactly the approach of Ethyl's first stage. We then regressed gasoline lead against the resid uals in the second stage, using monthly national gasoline lead as our independent variable as before. The result is shown in Table 18.
Even in the second stage regressions, gasoline lead has a t statistic of 13.4. The bias inherent in this two stage approach is illustrated in Table 19, where gasoline lead is in the first stage and the city variables in the second stage. Thus even the 2 stage approach, which can most accurately be viewed as a worst case torture test for the explanatory variable, demonstrates the strong relationship between gasoline lead and blood lead. We believe that the single stage multiple regression is the best approach to quantify that relationship.
Bias Due to Subgroup Definitions Dr, Smith at the last meeting suggested that he Knows how one
can manipulate analyses by choice of dummy variables to produce

the effects one wants. Dr. Bradley expressed concern that our use
of a limited number of statistically significant dummy variables
undercontrolled for demographic representation compared.to Ethyl's
analysis.
%
We haver as noted above , performed analyses Including site
dummies and site Interactions and time, and performed separate
analysis on different subgroups, to address some of these issues.
Dr. Pirkle's 144 variable model (Table 20) with all first order
interactions also addresses Dr. Bradley's concerns. Dr. Pirkle
has also run this expanded model separately for several age and
race subgroups. They are also in Appendix IV of this document.
To further address Dr. Smith's concerns, we have performed
another regression with changed definitions for some of the demo*
graphic variables. We have redefined our age groups as 0-8, 8-21,
and 21 and over. Degree of urbanization has been redefined as
well, with Big representing cities over 250,000, Small representing
urban areas between 10,000 and 250,000 in population or Rural
representing cities under 10,000 and rural areas.
We have considered but rejected the idea of changing the defini tion of sex and race,* These results (Table 21), as expected, agree with the previous analyses, with gasoline explaining 7.6 gu/dl of mean blood lead.
We have also rerun our base model, which includes all vari ables that were statistically significant in s u r r e g r , other than time, with the natural log of individual's blood lead as the dependent variables. These results are on Table 22. The mean

Appendix C Multiple Regression Results for the Caroline Lead Variably'
Caroline lead vas entered as a linear tern (CAS1), since previous analysis he shown this to provide generally a better fit to the data than the squared ter. (2). the dependent variable is the natural log of blood lead. Variables which represented less than 30 samples have been excluded. Standard errors are included for completeness but they do not incorporate the effects of the complex survey design, degression results are given for Slacks A Whitts, Blacks, Whites, Whites .5-5 yrs, Whites 6-17 yrs and Whites 16-74 yr*.

gasoline usage during the NHANES period explains the mean blood lead in this model* Again# the agreement and consistency of the amount of blood lead due to gasoline among all of these models is striking# and* ve believe* supports the conclusion that air lead sources contributed two to three times the 3 ug/dl to blood lead that was estimated in 1977-78 during the previous EPA stand ard setting.
Further support for the hypothesis that this phenomenon is not
an artifact of the choice of subgroups are the enclosed graphs
from Dr. Billich's analyses* Figure 1 shows the geometric mean blood lead levels for black children screened in New York, Chicago# and X^uisville during the 1970s* the mean NHANES blood lead (which was all that was released when Dr* Blllich did his analysis) for black children in shown for comparison* This indi cates a consistent trend in three cities* based on several hundred thousand blood lead screens* Figure 2 shows the same data for the percent of children over 30 ug/dl. Again* the trend is clear* Figure 3 shows the results of several hundred thousand black and Hispanic blood lead tests# and gasoline lead in New York City* Figures 4* 5* 6* and 7 show these results broken down into age 0-1# 1-2# 2-3# and over 6# demonstrating a consistency across ages. Finally, I have updated the graphs of the national and Providence screening results that were in my previous paper to show two additional quarters of data. They indicate downward shifts of blood lead due to the two regulatory changes. All of these provide secondary reassurance that the relationship between gasoline lead and blood lead is not an artifact of sampling*

Response to Other Comments
-14-
Dr. Bradley and others have made several comments about our
analysis. 1 would like to respond to them briefly. We had
\
already examined time as an explanatory variable by the time we
received Dr. Bradley's comments. Be obviously received only an
earlier draft of our analysis. Dr. Bradley remarked that we
had not used individual data in our regression, which biased
results. We regret that lack of clarity in our paper lead him
to this conclusion. In fact, all of our regressions were on
individual data. Again, he states that we dismissed lead in
food as a causal variable by remarking that it could not have
changed enough to produce the effect. Dr. Bradley appears to
have missed the section in our report where we tabulated food in
the diet for three age groups in the 1970s. As we pointed out
in that section, food lead appears to have increased slightly
over the period, despite the reduction in lead solder in canned
food noted by Ethyl.
In our original report, we used regressions for New fork,
Chicago, and Louisville to verify that season was not statistically
significant when gasoline was included. Our December report also
includes SURREGR runs on the NHANES data showing season is insig
nificant in that analysis as well. We regret any imprecision in
our statement in the October report. We believe that the lack of
significance in 6 single city regressions (3 cities separately for
two races) and in the NHANES regressions were reason enough to
drop these variables. Obviously more detailed analysis can be
done, but we believe our approach was reasonable. Ethyl does not
appear to have investigated season in their report at all.

Conclusion The issue for the EPA Criteria Document is to assess how
much blood lead may be due to air emissions# counting direct and indirect pathways. We believe the regressions presented here and in or December 19B2 report are sufficient to conclude that during 1976-80, 6-8 ug/dl of blood lead in the average American was due to air emissions (gasoline lead is about 90% of air emissions).

the nation is available from the quarterly refiner's report* to EFA. During a
3-month period, the NHANES IX caravans on-the-average sampled A different
sites in the USA and over a 6-month period they sampled on-the-average 8
sites* Three gas variables were tested to cover both the 3-month and 6-month

The regression procedure included the demographic variables itemised in Appendix A and was performed separately for each of these gas variables* A "gas-squared" term vas also permitted to enter each model to account for a curvilinear relation* The regression results by race and selected age groups are given in Appendix A* The amount of downward trend attributable to gasoline lead i6 tabulated by race and selected age groups in Table 3 and the gas variable with the generally most conservative results (Gasl) is shown in

regression on the le>d in Gasoline Variables laeb of the gas variables is in units of 1000 tons of lead divided by 100 to reduce Che magnitude of the variable to approximately that of the 0-1 indicator variables. As with the tine regressions, some of the ffpcl models contain interaction terns without the corresponding pain offsets. *A11 of the main effects were reintroduced to these final models and the retresaion rerun to insure that their omission did not significantly alter the **jts" coefficients or the percent decrease in blood lead levels accounted for by lead in gasoline. The "gee* coefficients changes leas than 3.51 and the percent decrease in blood lead levels accounted for by gasoline Iced changed leas then 1.1Z Ce.g. 34.41 to 33.31).
The final models resulted from a manual backward elimination procsdurs (decribed on page 3) performed sepsrstelv for each of the three gas variables. In each regression the denominator degrees of freedom (df) is 32. Results are given below for each race and selected age groups of whites. The "gasn variable (Gael, Cas2, or Cas3) is consistently significant.

F statistics can be obtained by squaring the T for Ho: parameter 0. the tolerances on the time and GASQ variables indicate that the coefficents estimates should be reasonably stable. Percent drop calculations vsre done as previously described except time was included in the calculation so the "adjusted" intercept includes the coefficient of time multiplied by the mean V value of time over the Survey* Results of the percent drop calculations are given in Table 2:

The results in this table assume that the coefficient on the tine variable is completely unrelated to gasoline lead exposure, which is incorrect* Thus,
the decreases shown in the table are underestimates of the reduction in blood lead levels which can be accounted for by gasoline lead exposure*
