(A) Association of prenatal BMI (exposure) with each umbilical cord blood inflammatory factor (outcome); (B) Association of each inflammatory factor in umbilical cord blood (exposure) with childhood anaphylactic disease (outcome); (C) Association of levels of each inflammatory factor in umbilical cord blood (exposure) with childhood overweight/obesity (outcome).

Model A: Adjusted for maternal age, infant sex and education. Model B: Adjusted for Model A + gestation age and maternal allergic dermatitis. Model C: Adjusted for Model A + prenatal BMI, gestational weight gain, gestation age and infant birthweight. Cytokine data were log-transformed in linear regression of model A, and 10-fold log-transformed in logistic regression models B and C. N = 169. T-beta, back-transformed after regression. HR, hazard ratio.
