a Parameter estimates ± SE and b p-values for associations between calculated daily intakes (CDI) of adiponectin at given time points and the changes (Δ) in measured variables between different months after birth. c Results are presented only for variables with at least one significant raw p-value (p < 0.05, indicated by the bold text); after the false discovery rate adjustment, the predictor p-values were considered to be significant at <0.007 for CDI of whole milk adiponectin between 2 and 5 months, at <0.017 for CDI at 9 months and at <0.005 for CDI at 12 months (none are significant). d BIS—bioimpedance spectroscopy; BMI—body mass index; US 2SF—ultrasound 2-skinfolds; US 4SF—ultrasound 4-skinfolds. e CDI were measured between 2 and 5 months (n = 17) and within 2 weeks of 9 (n = 8) and 12 months (n = 8). f Results are not presented for impractical time combinations, n/a—not applicable.
