RR (relative risk) presented are unadjusted for confounding by maternal race yet are similar to the adjusted estimates shown in Table 3.

The prevalence of LBW, SGA, pre-term birth, and infant death in infants without CF, born in 1996-2013, was 5.9%, 8.4%, 8.5%, and 0.3%, respectively. We applied these prevalence estimates to the 123 infants with CF expected to have been missed through the study's ascertainment method in the 1996-2013 birth cohort.

The prevalence of LBW, SGA, pre-term birth, and infant death in infants without CF born in 2006-2013, was 6.8%, 8.0%, 10.3%, and 0.4%, respectively). We applied these prevalence estimates to the 69 infants with CF expected to have been missed through the study's ascertainment method in the 2006-2013 cohort.
