Mortality was adjusted for socioeconomic status, sex, maternal nulliparity, and IRC; morbidity was adjusted for socioeconomic status, sex, maternal nulliparity, IRC, and age
Quartile 1 used as reference for all other quartiles
Postnatal exposure to PM2.5 was not modeled since most infant deaths occurred before measurement - only 12 infants who died had at least one postnatal measurement
