  3. a model 1 is a linear model adjusted for study center (Poitiers or Nancy) and exact age at the 5-year clinical examination and predicted BMI at age 2 (only for clusters at age 2 and cluster evolution)
  4. b model 2 is a linear model adjusted as for model 1 and further adjusted for maternal education
