ß-diversity was assessed using unweighted UniFrac distances from multifactorial PERMANOVA; number of permutations=999. Maternal IBD status is defined as case (IBD) or control. Delivery type is defined as vaginal delivery or caesarean section. Feeding type is defined as formula-exclusive feeding, exclusive breast feeding or mixed feeding (exposure to any formula after hospital discharge). Antibiotic exposure refers to exposure after birth only. Preterm birth was defined as birth occurring before 37 weeks of gestational age. Uni, univariate regression analysis, Multi, multivariate analysis adjusted for all listed covariates; PERMANOVA, permutational analysis of variance.
