NOTE: All risk estimates adjusted for maternal race/ethnicity, maternal education, maternal age, marital status, trimester prenatal care began; maternal alcohol use, maternal smoking, maternal drug use, percentage of population (≥ 25 years) in maternal residence census tract with < 12 years of education, percentage of population (≥ 25 years) in maternal residence census tract with at least 4 years of college, and percentage of population in maternal residence census tract below federally defined poverty line.
Note, these single pollutant models differ from those in Table 4 only by the number of births used in the analysis.
