HOMA2-IR, updated homeostatic model of insulin resistance; HOMA2-β, updated homeostatic model of β-cell function.

Results for HOMA2-IR and HOMA2-β include repeated measurements collected on the same individuals at visit 1 and visit 2. Results for Matsuda, early insulin response, and oral disposition index include measurements collected at visit 2 only.

*

Per 5 kg/m2 increase in maternal pregnancy BMI.

Models constructed separately for maternal diabetes and obesity. Models are adjusted for offspring sex, race/ethnicity, age, Tanner stage, and for HOMA2-IR and HOMA2-β only, age by Tanner interaction.

Data were natural log-transformed for analysis; interpret β as percentage change in outcome with status change in maternal diabetes exposure and 5-kg/m2 increase in maternal pregnancy BMI.

§

Single model constructed with both maternal diabetes and obesity as predictors. Model is also adjusted for offspring sex, race/ethnicity, age, Tanner stage, age by Tanner interaction.
