aIndependent variables entered in the regression were maternal UIC, maternal age, education, occupation, and income, and maternal and parental height. Dependent variable was infant HAZ

bIndependent variables entered in the regression were maternal UIC, maternal age, education, occupation, and income, and maternal BMI. Dependent variable was infant WAZ

cOnly women whose children had UIC within the normal range (50-299 μg/L) were included (n = 450)
