Table 3 Subgroup specific associations (95% CI) (for HAZ), and OR (95% CI) (for stunting) between the outcomes of interest and in-utero PM2.5 derived by including interaction terms between sex, urban/rural, wealth quintile with in-utero PM2.5 in fully-adjusted models (Table 2)
From: Impact of air pollution on stunting among children in Africa
