Factors mutually adjusted for each other: IGF-I levels, infant gender, race, maternal BMI, maternal smoking, delivery route, and gestational age at delivery, to predict birth weight. **Referents are individuals with lower (≤3rd Tertile) IGF-I at delivery. ***Referents are male infants. ****Referents are African Americans. ∧Referents are BMI < 30. ∧ ∧Referents are lower gestational age. ∧ ∧∧Referents are nonsmoking mothers. ∧ ∧∧ ∧Referents are vaginal delivery infants. |
