Effect estimates (β) and unadjusted p values from the multivariate linear regression models are shown. Models adjusted for maternal age and socioeconomic status. All effect estimates (β) are reported for a one standard deviation increase in NO2 (SD: 2.23 ppb), PM10 (SD: 3.65 µg/m3), and PM2.5 exposure (SD: 1.02 µg/m3). Unadjusted P-values less than 0.05 are denoted in bold text.
