  1. For categorical variables, data are shown as (N, %); for non-normally distributed continuous variables, data are shown as (N, 95% CI). P values are two-tailed, calculated by the Chi-square or Mann–Whitney U test. Source data are provided as a Source data file. CS and VD refer to Cesarean and vaginal delivery; SCMCH, CSMCH, and GZMCH represent Sichuan, Changsha, and Guangzhou Maternal and Child Health Hospitals, respectively.
  2. GA gestational age, BW birth weight.
