Impact of the Intervention on Children’s Overweight Status at 24 Months of Age
SE, adiposity
ADIPOSITY
We observed that maternal consumption of (1) probiotics+placebo and (2) probiotics+fish oil were associated with lower odds of child being overweight (1 = weight-for-height%, 2 = weight-for-age SD-score as outcomes) when compared to the placebo+placebo in the adjusted models (Table The children’s adiposity was investigated in more detail by measuring their body fat percentage at 24 months of age but no differences were detected between the intervention groups (Table Growth measurements of all children and when subdivided into the four different intervention groupsData are presented as mean ± SD and adjusted mean (SE). Fat percentage ln transformed for the analysis due to skewed distribution.BMI = body mass index; SD = standard deviation; SE = standard error. Data are presented as median (interquartile range).Data are presented as adjusted geometric mean (95% CI).General linear model adjusted for maternal smoking status before pregnancy, children’s birth weight, and age at the measurement (weight-for-height%).
