Temporal Changes in Socioeconomic Influences on Health: Maternal Education and Preterm Birth
Abstract
Objectives. To consider how the relationships between social determinants and health indicators change over time, we assessed the time-varying influence of maternal education on risk of preterm birth (PTB) between 1989 and 2006. Methods. We used bivariate and multivariable Poisson regression models with robust variation estimates to examine (1) the association between maternal education and PTB risk by year; (2) the relationship between low maternal education and PTB, late PTB, and very PTB risk by year relative to 1989; and (3) the relationship between high maternal education and PTB, late PTB, and very PTB risk by year relative to 1989. Results. After adjustment, PTB risk increased among the most educated and did not change among the least educated women over time. Risk of PTB among the least educated relative to the most educated women decreased with time. Late PTB risk increased among both the most and the least educated groups but more among the most educated. Conclusions. Maternal education may be becoming less protective against PTB. The influence of the social determinants of health is dynamic, warranting revisions of our understanding of their roles over time.

In the citing paper
“As described above for birthweight, most studies confirmed that the risk of PTB was associated with individual or family socioeconomic characteristics [31,33,36,37,38,39,42,44,46,47,50,54]; all but four studies reached this conclusion [37,39,50,54].”

In the citing paper
“For instance, the risk of PTB is significantly linked with a low level of maternal education (compared to those having a higher level of education), with a risk of about 1.2 in Kaufman et al. [33] and El-Sayed et al. [47].”

In the citing paper
“Many studies have suggested an association between pregnancy outcomes and individual socioeconomic characteristics, such as maternal or paternal education level [33,38,42,47,52,55,57,58], maternal employment [29,58], socioeconomic status [26], low maternal income [55] and ethnicity [39,44].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
