Table 4.

Stratified logistic regression analysis (children <72 months and ≥72 months) between nutritional risk (Nutrition Screening for Toddlers and Preschoolers (NutriSTEP®) total score, high nutrition risk, eating behaviour subscore and dietary intake subscore) and school concerns (post hoc analysis)

Age at outcome
Exposure variable <72 months, n 2358, adj OR* P-value; 95 % CI ≥72 months, n 1297, adj OR* P-value; 95 % CI
NutriSTEP® total score 1·33 < 0·0001; 1·18, 1·49 1·01 0·89; 0·88, 1·16
High nutritional risk 2·01 < 0·0001; 1·49, 2·71 0·92 0·63; 0·65, 1·30
NutriSTEP® eating behaviour subscore 1·14 0·02; 1·02, 1·29 0·91 0·17; 0·80, 1·04
NutriSTEP® dietary intake subscore 1·13 0·04; 1·01, 1·27 1·00 0·97; 0·88, 1·14
*

Model adjusted for child sex, child age, child ethnicity, maternal education, family income, breast-feeding duration, family living arrangements, zBMI, birth weight and a diagnosis of developmental delay.

A NutriSTEP® score ≥ 21 is categorised as high nutritional risk.
