Risk factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes: opportunities and perspectives of a birth registry-based study
Background: Preterm birth, perinatal death, and birth of babies small for gestational age are amongst common adverse pregnancy outcomes. Maternal lifestyle, mothers’ health status before and during pregnancy, previous adverse pregnancy outcomes as well as socio-demographic factors all influence peri...
