Note:
HR, hazard ratio; CI, confidence interval.
Reference groups are as follows: for No IVF insurance coverage: IVF insurance coverage; for Race/Ethnicity: Non-Hispanic white; for No prior live birth: Prior live birth; for No embryos cryopreserved: Excess embryos cryopreserved; for Pregnancy loss during first IVF cycle: Did not become pregnant during first IVF cycle.
P-value <0.05 between the group and the reference group.
See Table 4 for interaction-specific HR.
