*Mean and regression coefficients adjusted for age, sex, school, parental myopia, height, and gestation (except in the analysis of gestational age data). All regression coefficients are derived from a single linear regression model with the ocular parameter as the dependent variable and birth variable as the independent variable, adjusted for age, sex, school, height, parental myopia, and gestation (except in the analysis of gestational age data). For example, in the multiple linear regression model with birth weight as the independent variable, for every 1 kg increase in birth weight, the axial length is 0.25 mm greater. | |||||||
