Only ORs (95% CIs) for putative risk factors significantly associated with ≥1 outcome measure in analyses of full sample data are shown (i.e., not the sample subset with BMI Z score change data at 0.5-1.5 years and 1.5-3.5 years).

Race not included in these models as the reported race for all children with SDB “Always” symptoms at these timepoints is White.

N/A because history of adenoidectomy was not assessed at 1.5 years.
