  1. Odds ratios were adjusted for maternal age, BMI, gravidity, parity, hsCRP (mg/L) and hemoglobin (g/L). Parameters of PTB were additionally corrected for GDM, ICP, PE, PIH, systolic and diastolic BP, and infant sex. The values of SGA, LGA, LBW and macrosomia were additionally corrected for gestational age at delivery.*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01
