FIGURE 4.
Monthly proportion of pregnant women achieving MDD-W (n = 1757 women; n = 10,955 data points) in the MISAME-III trial. The y-axis ranges between a minimum of 29% and maximum of 42%. The solid lines represent the local polynomial smoothing prediction of the monthly mean proportion with 95% CI, whereas the dashed line represents the modeled seasonal variation, with Fourier series. The MDD-W was fitted to the first-, second-, and third-order Fourier pairs.
