  1. Values are linear regression coefficients (95 % confidence interval) and reflect the difference in outcome (specific SD scores) for medium and high sugar-containing beverage intake, as compared to the lowest category of intake
  2. Trend tests were performed using tertiles of sugar-containing beverage intake as continuous variable in the model
  3. Insulin was root-transformed before standardization
  4. Model A is adjusted for age at measurements and total energy intake (and child sex in the analysis of the total population)
  5. Model B is additionally adjusted for maternal age, BMI, education level, smoking during pregnancy, folic acid supplement use during pregnancy, breastfeeding of the child, diet quality score, and hours of TV watching at age 2)
  6. N per tertile are number of children in the tertiles for HDL-cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin and preperitoneal fat, respectively
