An organization's overall strategy drives choices about which of its parts will be best in class (superior), world class (parity), strong (above average), or simplified/outsourced to be good enough.
Social class, parity, and breastfeeding were not significant predictors in the multivariable models.
Analyses were adjusted for age, offspring sex, social class, parity, smoking, physical activity and diet in pregnancy, mode of delivery, and breastfeeding.
We were able to adjust for the potentially important confounding factors of age, smoking, social class, parity, and (for some analyses of the general practice observation subset) use of hormone replacement therapy.
However, exploratory analyses of the impact of social class, parity, ethnicity (if numbers permit), smoking status and initial BMI on the effect of the intervention will be carried out.
Analyses were also adjusted for potential confounding factors including maternal age at delivery, gestation when weight was measured, social class, parity, sex of offspring, gestation at delivery, birth weight, and current age of offspring.
Adjustments were made for year of birth of the infant, maternal age (5 year classes), parity, smoking in early pregnancy and body mass index (BMI).
The risk for developing cancer in children whose mothers had diabetes was estimated as an odds ratio (OR), using Mantel–Haenszel procedure and stratifying for year of birth, maternal age (5 year classes), parity (1 4+), and sometimes also birth weight (500 g classes).
Within this sampling approach, we aim for maximum variation in relation to age, ethnicity, social class and parity.
Statistical analysis took account of factors such as gender, smoke exposure, maternal age and education, social class and parity.
The observed relations were independent of several confounders, which could reflect the prenatal and postnatal environment, including maternal social class, maternal parity, and current age and sex of offspring.
