An analytical survey with a case control (retrospective) design was used in this study.This study analyzed the relationship between risk factors (protein consumption and income) and the incidence of CED in pregnant women in the working area of the Lembang Health Center. According to the results of this study, there is a relationship between protein consumption and the incidence of CED in pregnant women in the working area of the Lembang Health Center with a moderate level of relationship strength, and there is a relationship between family income and the incidence of CED in pregnant women in the Lembang Health Center work area with a weak level of relationship strength.
