Implication

Cohort study reveals a notable rise in preterm birth prevalence among pregnant women with iron deficiency anaemia, suggesting implications for maternal care.

Key Points

Pregnant women with iron deficiency anaemia had a 43.3% rate of preterm births, significantly higher than 20% in the control group.
The relative risk for preterm birth associated with iron deficiency anaemia was calculated at 2.2, indicating a concerning association.
Stratification highlighted that lower maternal weight increased the risk of preterm births in the iron deficiency anaemia group.
Addressing iron deficiency anaemia during pregnancy could help reduce neonatal complications stemming from preterm births.
