Mean (SD)
Crude model 82.7 (39.3) 67.0 (41.9) 76.0 (25.3) 75.1 (38.5) 0.74 (0.56–0.99)* 0.89 (0.65–1.23) 0.88 (0.74–1.04)
Adjusted Model1 0.79 (0.58–1.06) 0.99 (0.71–1.38) 0.97 (0.81–1.15)

Note: OR = odds ratio; CI = confidence interval; OR are reported for 25 units increase in 25(OH)D.

p < .05. This analysis is restricted to the DD and TD groups.

Adjusted for maternal education, pre-pregnancy body mass index; in the adjusted model, data on some covariates are missing on 27 children.
