Adjusted logistic regression for the relationship between maternal employment and overweight, in countries where the association did not vary by education^{1, 2}. ¹Country-specific odds ratios were estimated using logistic regression to test the relationship between employment and overweight (BMI ≥ 25 kg/m²). Overall odds ratios were generated using meta-analysis and pool estimates across countries.² Models were adjusted for maternal age (years), parity, marital status (married, not married), number of household members, child age (months), substitute childcare provider (yes, no) and maternal education (< primary education, ≥ primary education)
