Lack of Impact of Body Mass Index at Young Age on Otitis Media Occurrence During Preschool Years: Wheezing Illnesses Study Leidsche Rijn Cohort Study.

Using data on weight and height at 6 and 11 months of age and primary care electronic health records data from 1960 children participating in the Wheezing Illnesses Study Leidsche Rijn birth cohort study, we found that body mass index at 6 and 11 months of age was not associated with otitis media occurrence during the first 4 years of life.
