Table 3. Association between birth weight categories, the cardio-metabolic risk z-score during childhood and the cardio-metabolic risk z-score during adolescence.

	Cardio-metabolic risk z-score during adolescence
	β Coefficient	P
AGA vs SGA	0.328	0.004
AGA vs LGA	0.336	0.005
Cardio-metabolic risk z-score during childhood	0.395	<0.001

Dependent variable: cardio-metabolic risk z-score during adolescence. R² = 0.37. Data were adjusted for age and sex.

AGA =  Appropriate for Gestational Age; SGA =  Small for Gestational Age; LGA =  Large for Gestational Age.
