CI, confidence interval; OR, odds ratio; NICU, neonatal intensive care unit.
Data are mean±standard deviation, n (%), or median (10th, 90th percentiles) unless otherwise specified.
Adjusted odds ratios calculated from logistic regression and adjusted for maternal race, parity, body mass index, insurance type, pre-existing medical conditions, substance abuse, tobacco use, and reporting clinical site. The group aged 25.0–29.9 years was used as the referent category. Unless specified, missing data for logistic regression = 44,227.
P<.001.
Perinatal mortality defined as stillbirth and neonatal death.
