*

Heart failure endpoint is a composite of heart-failure related hospitalization and heart failure-related death

Age-adjusted models are adjusted only for maternal age at the last birth

Fully adjusted models are adjusted for maternal birth year, maternal age at first birth, maternal age at last birth, and chronic diabetes diagnosis prior to last birth
