Offspring hospitalization rates, involving OSA (n\u2009=\u20091607), were higher among children conceived following IVF and OI pregnancies as compared with the rate in children conceived spontaneously (1.4% vs 1.2% vs 0.7%, respectively; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u2009.001).

Using multiple Cox regression models, controlled for gestational age, maternal age, maternal smoking, maternal obesity, birthweight, offspring gender and obesity, IVF as well as OI exhibited a
