TABLE 3.
Stratified Cox Proportional HRs for 1-Year Mortality in Infants Born With CCHDs: Atlana, Georgia, 1979–2005
Variable | Referent Group | HRa | 95% CI | P |
---|---|---|---|---|
Born 1979–1993 | Born 1994–2005 | 2.65 | 2.11–3.32 | <.001 |
Diagnosed at >1 day old | Diagnosed at ≤1 day old | 0.54 | 0.42–0.69 | <.001 |
Maternal age ≥30 years | Maternal age <30 years | 0.77 | 0.62–0.97 | .02 |
Birth weight <2500 g | Birth weight ≥2500 g | 1.73 | 1.34–2.24 | <.001 |
Infants with noncardiac defects and chromosomal syndromes were excluded.
Each HR was adjusted for the other variables in the table. The model was stratified on neighborhood poverty status because it violated the proportional hazards assumption.
