Table1. General characteristics of the study population of case
mothers (COD offspring) and control mothers (offspring without
congenital defects).
Legend Table 1.COD = congenital outflow defects. * presented as mean (SD). Data are
presented as median [IQR] or number of individuals (proportions).
Table 2. Maternal telomere length (T/S ratio) in association
with the risk of congenital outflow defects (COD) (A) or
ventricular septal defect (VSD) (B) in offspring.
Legend Table 2.OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval of COD or VSD risk per standard
deviation (SD) decrease in maternal T/S ratio. OR for decrease in risk
per SD showed as 1/OR, one SD maternal T/S ratio = 0.163. Telomere
length (T/S ratio) measured at approximately 16 months after the index
pregnancy. 1Risk estimates adjusted for maternal age,2Risk estimates adjusted for maternal age, maternal
body-mass-index, ethnicity, education and use of alcohol or smoking
during pregnancy.
