Patient characteristics are shown for the FGR (n = 250), SB (n = 64), and control (n = 42) cohorts. Continuous data is presented as mean + SD and compared between groups using the one-way ANOVA with Tukey HSD as a post-hoc test. Categorical data is presented as number + percentage and compared using the Chi-square test with Bonferroni correction as a post-hoc test. Significance presented as p-value compared to the control group.
*
Significant at p < 0.05.
***
Significant at p < 0.001. FGR, fetal growth restriction; SB, stillbirth; GA, gestational age.
