Bastola K, et al. - Based on nationwide data from the Medical Birth Register of Finland, researchers examined variations in the prevalence of cesarean delivery and neonatal outcomes between women of migrant origin and Finnish women in Finland. The investigation covered data on the most recent singleton birth of women delivering between January 2004 and December 2014 (N = 382,233). In order to report connections between the country of origin and pregnancy outcomes adjusted for maternal age, socio-economic status, pre-pregnancy body mass index, parity, marital status, smoking during pregnancy, and delivery year, generalized linear models have been used. According to results, women of sub-Saharan African, South Asian, and East Asian origin were at higher risk of emergency cesarean delivery, preterm birth, low birth weight, and lower five-minute Apgar scores for newborns compared with Finnish women. Compared with Finnish women, Latin American/Caribbean-origin women were at heightened risk of both elective and emergency cesarean delivery and lower five-minute Apgar scores. Overall, women of Russian/former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics origin had a lower risk of cesarean delivery and worse neonatal outcomes vs Finnish women.
