Regression analyses of weight-for-age z-scores (WAZ) at birth and their evolution over time by exposure to antiretroviral drugs (ARV).

Univariable linear regression of WAZ at birth N=575
Multivariable linear regression of WAZ at birth* N=359
Difference in WAZ (95%CI**) P-value Difference in WAZ (95%CI**) P-value
ARVs in the first trimester −0.30 (−0.55 to −0.06) 0.02 −0.52 (−0.99 to −0.04) 0.02
No ARVs during pregnancy −0.20 (−0.43 to 0.02) 0.07 0.30 (−0.08 to 0.69) 0.12
ARVs in the second or third trimester 0 (reference) - 0 (reference) -
Univariable mixed-effects regression of WAZ over time (N=582)
Multivariable mixed-effects regression of WAZ over time* (N=358)
Difference in WAZ (95%CI**) P-value Difference in WAZ (95%CI**) P-value
ARVs in the first trimester −0.17 (−0.40 to 0.06) 0.15 −0.22 (−0.47 to 0.04) 0.10
No ARVs during pregnancy −0.19 (−0.40 to 0.01) 0.07 −0.01 (−0.34 to 0.36) 0.96
ARVs in the second or third trimester 0 (reference) - 0 (reference) -

CI, confidence interval; ARV, antiretroviral drugs; WAZ, weight-for-age z-score
