SPD septal defect, VSD ventricular septal defect, CTD conotruncal defect, LVOTO left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, RVOTO right ventricular outflow tract obstruction, AVR anomalous venous return, ELSE other cardiac structure abnormalities. a Only cases with a single CHD were included. Odds ratios were adjusted for the factors shown in Table 1. Hospital was set as a random intercept effect. b Cases of the atrial septal defects (n = 21) and other septal defects excluding atrial septal defects (n = 60) were aggregated because of the small numbers of subjects. p < 0.10
