CRP = C-reactive protein; LAZ = length-for-age Z-score; SE = standard error. Bolded values represent a P value < 0.05.

*

Estimated effect of male sex, monthly family income, maternal education, LAZ at 104 weeks, and CRP at 40 weeks on developmental outcomes expressed as the magnitude change in developmental scores for every taka in family income, year of maternal education, and increment in LAZ at 104 weeks. Data in parentheses are SEs for the corresponding covariate effect.
