| Parameter | Spearman ρ | P value |
| Age(years) | 0.132 | 0.095 |
| BMI(kg/m2) | 0.296 | 0.000* |
| TG(mmol/L) | 0.279 | 0.002* |
| TC(mmol/L) | 0.036 | 0.019* |
| HDL(mmol/L) | -0.323 | 0.000* |
| LDL(mmol/L) | 0.467 | 0.005* |
Abbreviations: Age, maternal age at enrolment; HDL, high density lipoprotein; LDL, low density lipoprotein; BMI, body mass index; TC, total cholesterol; TG, triglycerides.
Values were obtained using Pearson’s correlation, and the other results were obtained using Spearman’s correlation. *Indicates significant difference between groups (P < .05).
