Table 2.

Maternal Plasma 25(OH)D Concentrations 1 and Pregnancy Outcomes.

Outcome Mean Difference (SE) 2 p
Gestational age at birth, weeks 0.01 (0.01) 0.41
Birth weight, grams 3.0 (1.6) 0.06
Weight-for-age z-score (WAZ) 0.01 (0.00) 0.035 *
Length-for-age z-score (LAZ) 0.00 (0.01) 0.70
Weight-for-length z-score (WLZ) 0.02 (0.01) 0.02 *

Data are no. of offspring with the outcome/no. of offspring assessed (% of offspring with the outcome). SE, standard error. 1 Maternal plasma 25(OH)D measured at enrollment; 2 Data are the mean outcome difference per 1 nmol/L increase of plasma 25(OH)D concentration. The mean differences and corresponding p values were estimated from linear regression models; * Significant difference at p ≤ 0.05 level.
