Adjusted mean cardiometabolic risk markers at 6 years old for the 2 breastfeeding groups, over the range of gestational fasting plasma glucose measured. Models were adjusted for maternal age, maternal education, ethnicity, tobacco exposure, pre-pregnancy BMI, child birth size, and child sex. 95% confidence interval bands were shown. Only models with statistically significant interaction terms are shown. Abbreviations: FPG = fasting plasma glucose; z-BMI = body mass index z-score; SDS = standard deviation score; SAT = subcutaneous adipose tissue; VAT = visceral adipose tissue; IMCL = intramyocellular lipid; SBP = systolic blood pressure; DBP = diastolic blood pressure; HDL = high-density lipoproteins; LDL = low-density lipoproteins; HOMA-IR = homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance
