^aOverall percentages are expressed as weighted percentages, but counts are unweighted
^bOdds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were calculated using weighted logistic regression
^cAdjusted odds ratio (aOR) adjusted for department, prenatal visit number, maternal age, marital status, maternal education, gestational age, and parity
^dDue to the low number of women with unknown visit number (n = 21), the corresponding odds ratios and confidence intervals are suppressed
