  1. Abbreviation: aOR Adjusted odds ratio, CI confidence interval, TOX Toxoplasma gondii, CMV Cytomegalovirus, IgG Immunoglobulin G, IgM Immunoglobulin M
  2. a Separate models of all migrant women compared to native women; inter-provincial migrant women and intra-provincial migrant women compared to native women; migrant women with migrant spouses and migrant women with native spouses compared to native women were constructed
  3. b Adjusted ORs were calculated by multivariate logistic regression after adjusting for age, ethnicity, educational attainment, occupation, residential address, and study year
