Table 5.

Estimated odds ratio and 95% confidence interval (CI) (adjusted for maternal age and race) for age of maternal grandmother at birth of mother using enrolled mothers from ADSP and NDSP

All mothers Dichotomized by mother’s age

<30 years ≥30 years



N Mean grand-maternal age (SD) OR (95% CI) N OR (95% CI) N OR (95% CI)

The sample sizes vary slightly from Table 2 because of missing grand-maternal ages
