CI, confidence interval; PTB, preterm birth
Prior to imputing, there were 712 participants with preeclampsia and 52 without (680 were missing information on preeclampsia). Of those observed to have preeclampsia, there were 28 preterm births (6 spontaneous and 22 provider-initiated), and of those without, there were 79 preterm births (57 spontaneous, 21 provider-initiated, and 1 not classified). Data exclude 3 participants who miscarried and 3 with unknown HIV serostatus at enrollment.
