47. Response rates in the WLS sample have been high; approximately 75% of the original cohort responded to the 2004 survey. 
48. Of the 19,050 cohort members , approximately 90% were located in the 1940 census. 
49. Because these assessments used different metrics, we first transformed raw scores into the percentage of points earned out of the maximum possible for each test, then we averaged these scores within each domain. 
50. To account for potential confounding in the estimated effect of lead exposure on late life cognition, we controlled for childhood socio economic and demographic factors measured in the 1940 census. 
51. We used the MICE function in Stata to impute 10 datasets, then averaged estimated coefficients across these datasets to produce our final results. 
52. We estimated coefficients for baseline cognition and cognitive decline between 2004 and 2011.

64. After adjusting for potentially confounding socio economic and demographic factors in Model 2, the estimated effect of childhood lead exposure on the intercept of memory/attention was still not significant. 
65. However, the estimated slope effect increased slightly in magnitude and indicated a significantly steeper rate of decline in memory/attention for those who were exposed to lead as children. 
66. Estimated fixed effects from multilevel regression models of language/executive function are presented in Table 3. 
67. In Model 3, we found that the estimated coefficient for childhood lead exposure did not substantially change after adjusting for adolescent IQ, even though adolescent IQ itself is strongly associated with late life language/executive function.

70. According to the World Health Organization , today around 85% of the world’s lead consumption is for the production of lead. 
71. The good news is that lead acid batteries are 99% recyclable. 
72. Thus, while the 99% recycling statistic is important, it may understate the potential for lead contamination via this process.

81. Among the industries with the largest percentage increase in employment in each state from October 2016 to October 2017, mining and logging in North Dakota experienced the largest increase, with 23.4 percent. 
82. Among the states with industries having the largest percentage increases in employment, mining and logging had the largest percentage increase in 16 of the top 20. 
83. Among industries having the largest percentage decreases in employment in each state, the information industry in Kansas experienced the largest decrease, with an 8.3 percent decrease from October 2016 to October 2017. 
84. This was followed by a 7.5percent decrease in manufacturing employment for Alaska, a 6.8percent decrease in construction for Iowa, and a 6.7 percent decrease in information employment in North Carolina.

88. In Broken Hill, the most recent data show that 53 % of children tested have BLLs over 5 μg/dL, with Aboriginal children “twice as likely to have blood lead levels that exceed 10 μg/dL” . 
89. In 2008, a larger sample showed a greater percentage of children with BLLs greater than or equal to. 
90. In Port Pirie, in the first half of 2014 approximately 20 % of children tested had blood lead levels of 10 μg/dL or higher [16]. 
91. [55], or the percentage of yards that exceed the standard. 
92. Parents in all three cities are advised that children should not have “empty stomachs” and should follow specific diets in order to, according to the Broken Hill materials, “keep children’s lead levels low” [73]. 
93. In 2018, U.S. production of lead was estimated at 1.3 million metric tons; primarily from secondary refining of scrap metal and 10 mines mostly in Alaska and Missouri. 
94. The U.S. has 11 operating secondary smelters accounting for 99% of refined lead production in the U.S. Lead can be used as a pure metal, combined with another metal to form an alloy, or in the form of a chemical compound.
