OR - odds ratio, GA - gestational age, PTD - preterm delivery

Preterm model adjusted for maternal age, ART status, haemoglobin, parity, previous PTD

Birth weight, size for GA and birth outcome models adjusted for maternal age, ART status, haemoglobin and parity. Missing data, n (%): GA at delivery n=3 (0.6), Birthweight n=9 (1.9), Size for GA n=6 (1.3). Where data are missing on outcomes, cases were excluded on the regression. Interpretation of OR’s: Increase in GWG increases (OR>1) or decreases (OR<1) the likelihood of having spontaneous PTD/PI-PTD/LBW/HBW/SGA/LGA compared to respective reference categories.
