Data are reported as standardized differences and variance ratios, and gross and weighted values. Data are from only São Luís, Maranhão of the RPS cohort (joint Brazilian birth cohorts Ribeirão Preto, Pelotas, and São Luís) by classification of body image. *Values close to 0 (zero) indicate similarity between the groups. **Values close to 1 (one) indicate similarity between the groups. ***Based on BMI-for-age (body mass index, kg/m²) 20.
