- * Inadequate/no prenatal care was compared to the reference group of all other types of care (intermediate, adequate and intensive).
- **Controlling for maternal age and parity, and adjusting for within-mother dependency. Maternal age was studied using categories of <20 years, 20–24 years, 25–29 years, 30–34 years, and 35+ years, with 35+ years as the reference group. Parity was studied using categories of first birth, 2nd-3rd birth and 4 or more births, with first birth as the reference group.
