  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
  2. Abbreviations: ID iron deficiency, SF serum ferritin, ST serum transferrin, OR Odds ratio. CI confidence interval, GDM gestational diabetes mellitus, ICP intrahepatic cholestasis of pregnancy, PE Preeclampsia, PIH pregnancy-induced hypertension, PTB pre-term birth, LBW Low birth weight, SGA/LGA small/large for gestational age, BMI body mass index, hsCRP high sensitivity C-reactive protein, BP blood pressure
