Early Term Delivery and Breastfeeding Outcomes
Variation in Birth Outcomes by Mother’s Country of Birth Among Non-Hispanic Black Women in the United States
Institutional racism, neighborhood factors, stress, and preterm birth
Residential redlining as a form institutional racism and neighborhood characteristic may be important for understanding racial/ethnic disparities in pregnancy and preterm birth
Barriers to women's participation in inter-conceptional care
Actively removing common barriers to care does not guarantee the long-term and consistent participation of vulnerable women in preventive care. There are unknown factors beyond known barriers that affect participation in interconceptional care. New paradigms are needed to identify the additional factors that serve as barriers to participation in preventive care for vulnerable women
Subjective Social Status and Maternal Health in a Low Income Urban Population
Variations in Health and Health Behaviors by Nativity Among Pregnant Black Women in Philadelphia
Objectives. We compared health behaviors and health outcomes among US-born, African-born, and Caribbean-born pregnant Black women and examined whether sociodemographic and psychosocial characteristics explained differences among these population subgroups. Methods. We analyzed data from a prospective cohort study conducted in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, with a series of nested logistic regression models predicting tobacco, alcohol, and marijuana …
Beyond Marital Status
Maternal Weathering and Risk of Preterm Delivery
Objectives. We compared the association between advancing maternal age and risk of preterm delivery across 4 groups (Black smokers, Black nonsmokers, White smokers, White nonsmokers) and within the context of neighborhood deprivation levels. Methods. We obtained data from linked census and birth records for singletons (n = 182 938) delivered by women aged 20 to 39 years in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Baltimore, Maryland; 16 Michigan cities; 3 Mar…
Racial/Ethnic Differences in Breastfeeding Initiation and Duration Among Low‐Income Inner‐City Mothers
Objectives. Despite the promotion of breastfeeding as the “ideal” infant feeding method by health experts, breastfeeding continues to be less common among low‐income and minority mothers than among other women. This article investigates how maternal sociodemographic and infant characteristics, household environment, and health behaviors are related to breastfeeding initiation and duration among low‐income, inner‐city mothers, with a specific focu…
Perceptions of Neighborhood Disorder
Objectives. The study of neighborhood effects on health and well‐being has regained prominence in recent years. Most authors have relied on Census data and other administrative data sources to assess neighborhood characteristics. Less commonly employed, but gaining in popularity, are measures from surveys that ask neighborhood residents about various aspects of their neighborhood environment. Such surveys are a potentially attractive alternative …
Epidemiology and causes of preterm birth
Socioeconomic domains and associations with preterm birth
Neighborhood Deprivation and Preterm Birth among Non-Hispanic Black and White Women in Eight Geographic Areas in the United States
Disparities in preterm birth by race and ethnic group have been demonstrated in the United States. Recent research has focused on the impact of neighborhood context on racial disparities in pregnancy outcomes. The authors utilized vital-record birth certificate data and US Census data from eight geographic areas in four states (Maryland, Michigan, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania) to examine the relation between neighborhood deprivation and prete…
Relative performance of three methods for diagnosing bacterial vaginosis during pregnancy
Literacy and depressive symptomatology among pregnant Latinas with limited English proficiency
Latina immigrants with limited English proficiency face significant obstacles to using maternal health services. Using a measure of reading skill and problem solving in the health context (the Spanish version of the Test of Functional Health Literacy in Adults), the authors assessed the association between literacy in Spanish and depressive symptomatology among 99 Latinas receiving prenatal care who had limited English proficiency. After adjustin…
Preconception Care Between Pregnancies
For more than two decades, prenatal care has been a cornerstone of our nation's strategy for improving pregnancy outcomes. In recent years, however, a growing recognition of the limits of prenatal care and the importance of maternal health before pregnancy has drawn increasing attention to preconception and internatal care. Internatal care refers to a package of healthcare and ancillary services provided to a woman and her family from the birth o…

Factors Associated with Intention to Breastfeed Among Low-Income, Inner-City Pregnant Women
Prevalence of Child Welfare Services Involvement among Homeless and Low-Income Mothers
This paper investigates the five-year prevalence of child welfare services involvement and foster care placement among a population-based cohort of births in a large US city, by housing status of the mothers (mothers who have been homeless at least once, other low-income neighborhood residents, and all others), and by number of children. Children of mothers with at least one homeless episode have the greatest rate of involvement with child welfar…
Prevalence of Episodic Homelessness Among Adult Childbearing Women in Philadelphia, Pa
Pregnancy and the responsibilities of caring for children create additional barriers for low-income women and families seeking adequate and affordable housing, yet few studies have assessed the relative risk or prevalence of homelessness among pregnant or parenting women in the United States.1 The economic, social, and psychological dislocations associated with housing instability and homelessness may have particularly serious negative consequenc…
