Fig. 2

Figure shows the pooled adjusted mean differences in standard deviation (SD) units in offspring NMR-derived metabolic traits for preterm birth (minus not preterm birth), and small for gestational age (minus appropriate size for gestational age), for associations reaching the P<0.001 threshold in any one of the five age categories, and equivalent associations in all other age categories (to explore differences by age). Results are adjusted for offspring sex age, and confounders (maternal education, parity age at pregnancy, ethnicity, pre/early pregnancy BMI and smoking). Horizontal bars represent the 95% confidence intervals. Numerical values of these differences are presented in Table S2
