Results for each individual test (HDL and TGs) during pregnancy were divided into 3 groups: low quartile (levels lower than 25th percentile); intermediate (between 25th and 75th percentiles); and upper quartile (levels higher than 75th percentile) of the distribution for the respective gestational month.
