  2. aAdjusted for maternal age, calendar year and educational level. The models for preterm birth and major birth defects were additionally adjusted for body mass index and smoking status
  3. bInfants with a missing ID number were excluded due to inability to link to the patient register (n = 4, all excluded were general population comparator pregnancies)
