Health Behaviors and Prenatal Health Conditions in Repeat Vs First-time Teenage Mothers in the United States: 2015-2018
2021, Journal of Pediatric and Adolescent GynecologyCitation Excerpt :Previous studies of prenatal health and health behaviors of the national teenage mother population have not examined repeat teenage mothers separately to understand unique patterns of health behaviors and health conditions that might drive their elevated risk for adverse perinatal outcomes.15–17 The limited existing evidence of repeat compared with first-time teenage mothers stems from non-national studies that indicate repeat teenage mothers engage in more unhealthy behaviors such as cigarette smoking and inadequate weight gain and fewer healthy behaviors such as initiating prenatal care on time and attending an adequate number of prenatal care visits.5,7,18 Despite indications that repeat teenage mothers engage in less healthy behaviors, little evidence is available about their experience of pregnancy-related diseases, such as gestational hypertension and diabetes.
Inadequate prenatal care utilization among women with and without methadone-treated opioid use disorders in Taiwan
2019, International Journal of Drug PolicyCitation Excerpt :We descried sociodemographic, health, and treatment characteristics for deliveries and examined differences in relation to methadone treatment status by Chi-Square test. Since the number of prenatal care visits (count data) was over dispersed and its variance is not equivalent to the mean (see Table 1)(Covington, Churchill, & Wright, 1994; Gardner, Mulvey, & Shaw, 1995), we decided to turn to the negative binomial distribution to accurately assess factors associated with prenatal care visits. A series of the generalized linear mixed model (i.e., PROC GENMOD) with negative binomial (i.e., number of prenatal visits) and logit (i.e., early entry) distributions were performed.
Perinatal outcomes associated with subsequent pregnancy among adolescent mothers in Peru
2012, International Journal of Gynecology and ObstetricsCitation Excerpt :Although the present study was not designed to determine causality, LBW and SGA in newborns could be related to other confounding variables, such as weight gain during pregnancy or complications during pregnancy (for example, pre-eclampsia). Similar to other studies, the present study found that inadequate prenatal care was more likely among multiparous adolescents than among nulliparous adolescents or multiparous adult women [23,24]. The reasons for this inadequate prenatal care are not readily discernible, but other factors such as education, short interpregnancy interval, and previous bad experience regarding prenatal care could be involved in access to, and utilization of, healthcare systems.
