Predicted sum of skinfolds for the sole and combined effects of risk factor variables. Based on estimations by the adjusted multiple regression Model 3. High FG (5.0 mmol/L), 2hG (7.9 mmol/L) and GWG (0.77 kg/week) were defined as their respective 90 percentile value. + indicates presence and - absence of the predictor, remaining variables in the model were set at sample mean. Diamonds are predicted mean sum of skinfolds and error bars are 95% CI’s. FG = fasting glucose, 2hG = 2 - hour glucose, GWG = gestational weight gain. ^a Predicted sum of skinfolds if maternal BMI was 23 kg/m2, GWG was 0.42 kg/week (according to recommendations from the Institute of Medicine) [20], FG = 3.9 mmol/L (10 percentile) and 2hG = 4.1 mmol/L (10 percentile). ^bPredicted sum of skinfolds if all variables in the multiple regression model were set at sample mean.
