abstract: 'Social inequality in adverse birth outcomes has been demonstrated in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
several countries. The present study examined the separate and joint
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
effects of parental education and work in order to investigate the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
causal pathways of social class effects on adverse birth outcomes in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Korea. The occurrence of low birth weight, preterm births, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
intrauterine growth retardation was examined among 7,766,065 births in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Korea from 1995 to 2008. The effect of social inequality, as represented
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
by parental education and work, was examined against adverse birth
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
outcomes using multivariate logistic regression after controlling for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
other covariates. Parental education had the most significant and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
greatest effect on all three adverse outcomes, followed by parental work
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and employment, which had lesser effects. For adverse birth outcomes,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the gap between educational levels increased steadily in Korea from 1995
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to 2008. Throughout the analysis, the effect of maternal manual work on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
adverse birth outcomes was apparent in the study results. Given this
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
evidence of social inequality in education and employment, social
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interventions should aim at more in-depth and distal determinants of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health.'
