Fig. 3

Adjusted associations between infant fucosyltransferase-2 (FUT2) secretor status and change in child body mass index (BMI) z-scores in the first year of life stratified by secretor and non-secretor milk phenotypes. Estimates (β, 95% CI) were obtained from general linear models adjusted for sex, age, maternal milk and/or ABO group, birthweight, and gestational age. Bonferroni-adjusted significance threshold: α = 0.0035. BMI, body mass index; CI, confidence interval; FUT2, fucosyltransferase-2; SNP, single nucleotide polymorphism; HMO, human milk oligosaccharide; SPATZ, Ulm SPATZ Health Study; UBCS, Ulm Birth Cohort Study.
