We derived all values using multivariable logistic regression models.
Models were adjusted for prenatal or early-life exposure to tobacco smoke, sex, child’s ethnicity, parental asthma history, household income, city/location, visible mould in the home and pet ownership.
For the sex-stratified analysis, we adjusted for all covariates except sex. The p value of the interaction term when included in the regression model for the overall sample is reported.
We used a 1-sided Cochran–Armitage test (unadjusted) to evaluate increasing trend, by continuous FUS score for each health outcome.
