Increased risk of early-onset sepsis is linked to maternal infections and antibiotic use during pregnancy.
Adjusted odds ratios revealed maternal pneumonia raised the risk of sepsis 17.35 times compared to controls.

Understanding the associations may lead to improved prevention strategies for early-onset sepsis.
