After adjusting for maternal sociodemographic, prepregnancy, pregnancy, and perinatal covariates, ELA was not associated with an offspring risk of ASD (inverse probability of treatment–weighted HR, 1.08; 95% CI, 0.97-1.20).
Using these values to derive the “honest skeptic” prior, I calculate a skeptical bound of a prior odds no higher than 1.16. Since the observed OR falls within the skeptical bound, the language while not entirely correct, isn’t as misleading as it was in the Covid and smoking meta-analysis discussed in this thread.
