We collected PM2.5 on a filter and measured daily concentrations of carbon and ion components. Then, we calculated the average concentrations over the first trimester (0\u201313\u2009weeks of gestation) for each woman. A multilevel logistic-regression model with the hospital as a random effect was used to estimate the odds ratios (ORs) of abnormal cord insertion.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Among the 83 708 women (mean age at delivery\u2009=\u200933.7\u2009years), the frequency of abnormal cord insertion was 4.5%, the median concentration [interquartile range (IQR)] of total PM2.5 was 16.1 (3.61) \u03bcg\/m3 and the OR per IQR for total PM2.5 was 1.14 (95% confidence interval\u2009=\u20091.06\u20131.23). In the total PM2.5-adjusted models, total carbon, organic carbon, nitrate, ammonium and chloride were positively associated with abnormal insertion.
