  1. aP from logistic regression modeling maternal NCATS as a continuous variable.
  2. bDifference in maternal NCATS score of 5 units is approximately 1 SD.
  3. cResults of unadjusted model were unchanged with exclusion of the 200 children who were missing information on ≥1 covariate.
  4. dCovariates = age, gender, birth weight, duration of breast feeding, age when solid food introduced.
  5. eCovariates = age, gender, birth weight, duration of breast feeding, age when solid food introduced, maternal BMI, maternal smoking.
  6. fCovariates = age, gender, birth weight, duration of breast feeding, age when solid food introduced, maternal BMI, maternal smoking, race/ethnicity, maternal education, income-to-poverty ratio.
