Multivariate models for HAZ, BMIZ, and WAZ in mid-childhood adjust for which trial the child originally participated in, treatment arm, maternal height (cm), maternal education (0, 1-7 or ≥8 years), and child's sex and age at follow-up. Multivariate models for BMIZ adjust for which trial the child originally participated in, treatment arm, maternal height (cm), maternal education (0, 1-7 or ≥8 years), and child's sex and age at follow-up. Multivariate models for WAZ adjust for which trial the child originally participated in, treatment arm, maternal height (cm), maternal education (categories), and child's sex and age at follow-up.

Multivariate models with anthropometric indicators as independent variables also include the corresponding anthropometric indicator at 6 weeks or change from 6 to 52 weeks of age, for example, the model reporting the beta parameter for LAZ at 6 weeks adjusts for change in LAZ from 6 to 52 weeks of age, and vice versa.

n = 66 (children from second trial only).
