Abstract

Infant birth weight is an important indicator of survival, growth potential, and developmental capacity. Maternal health plays an important role in determining the well-being of newborns. A complicated pregnancy, inclusive of conditions such as preeclampsia, elevates the risk of giving birth to a low birth weight (LBW) baby. This study aimed to compare the impact of severe preeclampsia on the incidence of LBW babies in Dr. Dradjat Prawiranegara General Hospital Serang, Indonesia. This case-control analysis included 148 parturients recruited randomly from June to October 2022. Logistic regression was used as the analytical tool, with P=0.000 considered as demonstrating a significant association. The incidence rates of LBW and severe preeclampsia in 2018 were 19.84% and 14.15%, respectively. The case group recorded LBW within the weight range of 1,000-2,450 g, with 38% of them were Small for Gestation Age (SGA), while 50% and 12% were Appropriate for Gestational Age (AGA), and Large for Gestational Age (LGA), respectively. In contrast, the control group, with birth weights ranging from 2,600-4,500 g, 13.50% were SGA, while 77% and 9.50% were AGA and LGA, respectively. Parity was a confounding factor influencing the incidence of LBW, while maternal age did not present a significant correlation. Pregnancies with severe preeclampsia were found to have a 29-fold increased likelihood of delivering LBW babies compared to the control group when controlling for parity (P=0.000, CI 95%). Hence, women with severe preeclampsia pregnancies have a higher risk for delivering LBW babies of 29 times higher than the control.

Abstract

Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-specific disease potentially leading to complications, morbidity, and mortality. In general, obesity may cause preeclampsia through several common mechanisms. This study aimed to examine the association between obesity and the incidence of severe preeclampsia (SP) at Dr. Dradjat Prawiranegara General Hospital, Serang, Indonesia. A retrospective cohort design was used and the sample comprised of 168 parturients (84 SP and 84 non-SP subjects). Sample selection was consecutively conducted from June to November 2023, while data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test and multivariable analysis with multiple logistic regression. There was a statistically significant relationship between nutritional status and obesity in participants with SP history (p<0.05). Obese women had a 2.96 times higher risk of developing SP compared to non-obese. Additionally, the study found that multigravidas (≥G2) had a 2.19 times higher risk of suffering from SP compared to primigravidas (G1) (p=0.019). Furthermore, women who only completed ≤ junior high school education had a 2.14 times higher risk of suffering from SP compared to those who completed ≥ high school (p=0.060). In conclusion, women in delivery who suffered from obesity have a 2.68 times greater risk of suffering SP than non-obese, as evident from both bivariable and multivariable analyses.
