Figure 1 A, SBP, B, PP, and C, BMI in children born SGA (×) and children born with normal birth weight (●). Data shown only for 7, 13, and 18 months, and then annually from 2 to 19 years of age. Adjusted for sex, intervention group, maternal and paternal age at birth; blood pressure models further adjusted for height and adiposity.

Figure 4 Aortic IMT at age 19 years, and tertiles of average dietary ALA intake throughout childhood, in those born SGA (×) and normal birth weight (●). Ptrend = .001 for SGA; Ptrend = .68 for normal birth weight. Data are mean (95% CI), adjusted for sex, randomized group, maternal and paternal age at birth, and aortic diameter at end diastole.

Results are mean (95% CI), or geometric mean (95% CI) for log-transformed variables (insulin and hs-CRP); derived from all measures during childhood and adolescence. HOMA-IR, homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance. The Journal of Pediatrics 2015 166, 1252-1257.e2DOI: (10.1016/j.jpeds.2015.01.020) Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions
