Figures

None
Relation of drinks per occasion during pregnancy to the amount of ethyl oleate concentration found in meconium (on a dry-weight basis). One ounce equals two standard drinks. Each diamond in the figure represents a mother participating in the study. Note that there are fewer diamonds in the upper left corner (indicating high specificity) and lower right corner (indicating high sensitivity). SOURCE: Bearer et al. 2003.
