% LGA %SGA
Control 10.1% 7.3%
Preeclampsia 8.4% 15.0%
Adjustment OR (95% CI) for LGA OR (95% CI) for SGA
Univariate 0.81 (0.59, 1.14) 2.24 (1.73, 2.91)*
BMI 0.67 (0.48, 0.93)* 2.50 (1.93, 3.25)*

OR=odds ratio, CI=confidence interval, BMI=body mass index; GLT result=glucose loading test result, blood glucose 1 hour after the ingestion of a 50g oral glucose load; % LGA=percent of women delivering a large for gestational age infant (>90th percentile); % SGA=percent of women delivering a small for gestational age infant(<10th percentile); DBP=diastolic blood pressure.
