The overall agreement between the birth certificate and maternal interview, degree of misclassification, and proportion of missing values also vary by occupations and industrial sectors.
In general, greater maternal age, obesity, degree of hyperglycemia in the index pregnancy, increased weight gain, and short interval between pregnancies were suggested to be associated with recurrent GDM (7– 11).
Males responded differently to the presentation of "coo" calls of related and unrelated females, with their reaction depending on the interaction between kin-line (maternal vs paternal kin) and degree of relatedness (r = 0.5, 0.25).
Significant effects of the degree of maternal objective exposure to the disaster (but not maternal subjective distress) have been found on the children's cognitive development [ 47- 49], obesity [ 50], insulin secretion [ 51], brain development [ 52], and epigenetic signatures [ 53].
However, factors associated with maternal diabetes, such as problems with establishing breastfeeding early postpartum due to the higher degree of maternal and neonatal complications, affects the likelihood of long-term breastfeeding.
In sensitivity analyses, in the subset of children whose mothers also participated in the C8 Health Project, we assessed the association of predicted serum PFOA concentrations at birth with eGFR additionally controlling for maternal age (spline with 3 degrees of freedom), maternal smoking, maternal education, maternal BMI (spline with 3 degrees of freedom), and maternal regular exercise.
These changes depend on the degree of maternal hyperglycemia (Tran, Chen, Chenier, Chan, Quaggin, et al., 2008).
Mother to infant transmission of hepatitis B virus (HBV) represents a major factor in maintaining chronic infection and depends on the degree of maternal infectivity status.
The presence and degree of maternal ketonuria was correlated against abnormal results of fetal heart rate tests, nonstress tests, amniotic fluid index measurements, and biophysical profile scores performed on the same day.
The degree of maternal reactivity to and recovery from the stressor were correlated over time (r's=0.53 and 0.60 for heart rate; r's=0.31 and 0.36 for skin conductance; p's<0.001).
