Odds Ratios for poor fetal growth by specific maternal psychiatric diagnoses
| OR | 95 % CI | p-value | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Depression in pregnancy (n = 46) | |||
| Unadjusted | 3.90 | 2.06–7.36 | 2.8 × 10−05 |
| Adjusteda | 2.86 | 1.02–8.05 | 4.6 × 10−02 |
| Anxiety in pregnancy (n = 32) | |||
| Unadjusted | 3.15 | 1.51–6.57 | 2.2 × 10−03 |
| Adjusteda | 2.94 | 1.09–7.97 | 3.4 × 10−02 |
| OCD or panic disorder in pregnancy (n =10)b | |||
| Unadjusted | 8.23 | 1.73–39.26 | 8.2 × 10−03 |
| Adjusteda | 2.74 | 0.46–16.49 | 2.7 × 10−01 |
aAdjusted for antidepressant medication, tobacco use, alcohol use, recreational drug use, first pregnancy vs. not first pregnancy, race (white, black, Asian, or other race/unknown), insurance (public, private, military, self-pay), maternal age (<20, 20–34, and >34 years), maternal height, and maternal weight
bThe effect estimate precision in this category is very low due to a small n, but the direction of association is consistent with the other two diagnoses
