SGA small for gestational age, OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval, NICU Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, GCU Growing Care Unit, BP blood pressure

Model 1 was adjusted for maternal age at delivery, pre-pregnancy body mass index, maternal smoking, preterm birth (except as an outcome), and maternal diastolic BP level after 20 gestational weeks

Model 2 was adjusted for placental weight in addition to model 1. The total number of participants in model 2 was 16,441 each for SGA, low birth weight, preterm birth, and neonatal admission and 16,375 for 1-min Apgar score <7
