Preterm birthWeatheringRacial disparities in birth outcomes are seemingly intractable. Using person-centered methods and drawing from the life course and Weathering Hypothesis literatures, we used data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health to group non-Hispanic White and non-...
Both obesity and underweight during pregnancy have been linked to pre-term births and other adverse birth outcomes. Early labour, bleeding Prenatal care offers the opportunity to counsel women on how best to prepare for the birth process including identifying early labour signs and symptoms such as ...
Maternal pre-pregnancy BMI is known to influence pregnancy and birth outcomes. Women who are underweight pre-pregnancy have been suggested to have a higher risk of preterm delivery, small for gestational age (SGA) and low birthweight (LBW) [1, 2]. On the other hand, women who are overweig...
Pregnancy weight gain was significantly associated with infant birth weight (蠂2=6.25, p=0.04), although no significant correlations were found between weekly weight gain or mothers' pre-pregnancy BMI, respectively, and birth outcomes. Pre-pregnancy BMI correlated significantly with blood pressure at...
individually tailored to their needs [3] [4]. We conducted a large-scale retrospective study using the database of the Japan Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology (JSOG) Successive Pregnancy Birth Registry Systemto verify the validity of the IOM-BMI classification in Japanese women. Methods This ...
157 women with singleton pregnancies registered in theJapan Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology (JSOG) Successive Pregnancy Birth RegistrySystem between January 2013 and December 2013, to examine pregnancy outcomes infour groups stratified by pre-pregnancy BMI category according to the 2009 criteria ...
To assess the association between maternal BMI and mental health problems at 11 years old, we used data from the 2004 Pelotas birth cohort which comprised 4231 newborns. Maternal pre-pregnancy BMI was analyzed as underweight (< 18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25.0–29.9), and ...
One trial, the Partners PrEP trial, also found no differences between PrEP and placebo in pregnancy rate, risk of preterm birth, birth anomalies, or postpartum infant mortality.62 Estimate of Magnitude of Net Benefit The USPSTF found convincing evidence that PrEP is of substantial benefit in ...
However, to our knowledge no previous study has examined whether excess weight gain in pregnancy is associated with increased length of postnatal hospital stay. Given the independent association of weight gain in pregnancy with adverse perinatal outcomes reported in the Danish National Birth cohort our...
intrinsic fertility by means of a “maternal identity” random effect. They differ in how twinning outcomes and twinning propensity relate to the two fertility components (parity progression and interbirth intervals). We first describe and illustrate each mechanism before proceeding to formally testing ...
