Type of
Infection
n/N (%) OR (95%CI) P
Sepsis 368/910 (40) 1.3 (1.0–1.8)a .07
Meningitis 22/910 (2.4) 4.0 (1.4–11.0)b .008
NEC 80/910 (8.8) 1.6 (1.0–2.6)c .08
Any infection 407/910 (45) 1.4 (1.0–1.8)d .04
a

In this model, the OR (95% CI) associated with each count of the 3 neonatal morbidities was 2.8 (2.3–3.4).

b

In this model, the OR (95% CI) associated with each count of the 3 neonatal morbidities was 2.9 (2.3–3.5).

c

In this model, the OR (95% CI) associated with each count of the 3 neonatal morbidities was 2.9 (2.3–3.5).

d

In this model, the OR (95% CI) associated with each count of the 3 neonatal morbidities was 2.8 (2.3–3.4).
