  1. *Results presented in bold text are significant at p < 0.01
  2. Ethnicity model is adjusted for ethnicity and child age at kidney function measurement
  3. Socio-demographic model is ethnicity model plus maternal age, maternal educational attainment, housing tenure, and employment status, all at pregnancy
  4. Maternal/pregnancy model is socio-demographic model plus maternal BMI, maternal height, alcohol consumption in pregnancy, maternal smoking in pregnancy, and gestational diabetes
  5. Fully adjusted is maternal/pregnancy model plus birthweight, gestational age at birth, child body surface area (for kidney outcomes) or body mass index (for blood pressure), child gender (all outcomes), and systolic and diastolic blood pressure (for eGFR, cystatin C, ACR and PCR only)
  6. Complete results of the Fully adjusted models is shown in Supplementary Table 1
