Age, weight, height, BMI and total morphine dose are reported as mean followed by SD in parentheses. Specific statistical comparisons are indicated with lettered superscripts:

a

p=5.61×10-4 (t-test for equal means);

b

p=4.38×10-5 (t-test for equal means);

c

p=2.34×10-3 (Fisher's exact test);

d

p=1.28×10-4 (t-test for equal means);

e

p=0.0672 (t-test for equal means);

f

p=3.42×103 (Fisher's exact test);

g

p=0.681 (Fisher's exact test);

h

p=0.586 (Fisher's exact test);

i

p=0.618 (Fisher's exact test.)

*

Maximum pain scores (normalized to a 0 – 10 scale) were not reported in all children: for discovery cohort, 553 subjects had consistently documented numerical scores, and for replication, 161. AA = African-American ancestry, ASA PS = American Society of Anesthesiologists' physical status, BMI = body mass index, EC = European Caucasian ancestry, SD = standard deviation.
