Table 1.

Multivariable regression modela to estimate modification of IYCF on stunting at 18 mo by mother-infant FUT2+/FUT3− phenotype among 610 infants in whom mother and infant FUT2 and FUT3 status was ascertained.

Covariates include birthweight, infant sex, age at the 6 mo visit, infant LAZ at the 6 mo visit, infant diet diversity score at the 6 mo visit, and mother-infant Lewis-null secretor phenotype discordance coded as both, none, infant only or mother only. N's are reported in Table S4.
