Association between intrauterine exposure to PM2.5 and LRTI by quartiles, based on a multivariable analysis1. 1Associations were adjusted for gender of a newborn, parity, preterm delivery, birth weight and Apgar score at 5 min, temperature, NO2, Ozone level and cold season during first months of life. Environmental exposure was averaged per each trimester, and presented as quartiles of pollutants’ concentrations, with the first quartile used as reference. * p < 0.05 for comparison with the first quartile of PM2.5 exposure
