  1. Abbreviations: OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval
  2. Multivariable model 1, adjusted for traditional risk factors, including pre-pregnancy BMI, family history of diabetes in first-degree relatives, systolic blood pressure, current smoker before pregnancy, gestational weeks at glucose challenge test, and weight gain to the time of glucose challenge test
  3. Multivariable model 2, adjusted for choline at ≤ 110 vs. > 110 nmol/mL and ≤ 270 vs. > 270 nmol/mL, betaine ≤ 200 nmol/mL, and L-carnitine ≤ 150 nmol/mL (except for testing of its own significance), in addition to the variables listed in multivariable model 1
  4. aOnly tested its own significance and included no other variables in the multivariable model 1 and adjusted for traditional risk factors that included pre-pregnancy BMI, family history of diabetes in first-degree relatives, systolic blood pressure, current smoker before pregnancy, gestational weeks at glucose challenge test, and weight gain to the time of glucose challenge test in multivariable model 2
