Overview

Cross-sectional analysis reveals associations between maternal heat exposure and adverse birth outcomes, indicating increased health risks for pregnant women.

Key Points

  • Higher maternal heat exposure during pregnancy may negatively affect birth outcomes, with implications for public health.
  • In 2022, the mean gestational age was 38.84 weeks, and there were notable instances of stillbirth and neonatal mortality in the analyzed births.
  • Using a cross-sectional approach, the study employed regression models to adjust for maternal demographic variables associated with heat exposure.
  • The findings highlight the need for further research on the effects of climate-related factors on maternal health disparities.
