Statistical significance (P) and Pearson correlation coefficient (r) were derived from linear regression analysis. For categorical variables (a), the P value is derived from the independent samples t test. FL, PMD, MSD, and logFV are adjusted for gestational age at ultrasound. Birth weight is adjusted for gestational age at delivery. BMC and BMD are adjusted for gestational age at delivery and postnatal age at DEXA. BW, Birth weight.
