Table 4. Associations of infant growth velocity patterns with clustering of cardiovascular risk factor (N=2,990).

Odds Ratio for clustering for cardiovascular risk factors (95% CI)
PWV (1 SDS = 2.1 kg/year) 1.13 (1.01 – 1.26)*
AGEAP (1 SDS = 0.5 months) 1.11 (1.00 - 1.22)*
BMIAP (1 SDS = 0.8 kg/m2) 1.11 (1.00-1.24)

Abbreviations: N: number, SDS: standard deviation scores, BMI: body mass index PWV: peak weight velocity, AGEAP: age at adiposity peak, BMIAP: body mass index at adiposity peak. Models are adjusted for maternal factors: pre-pregnancy body mass index, educational level, income, smoking during pregnancy, use of alcohol during pregnancy, folic acid supplement use during pregnancy, systolic and diastolic blood pressure at intake and gestational hypertensive disorders, and child factors: age, sex, ethnicity, birth weight and gestational age;
