    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric epidemiology
    • Public health surveillance
    • Congenital malformations

    Background:

    • Birth defect rates are a key indicator of population health.
    • Understanding demographic and socioeconomic factors influencing malformation rates is crucial for targeted interventions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To determine the prevalence of congenital malformations in Utah births.
    • To investigate associations between malformation rates and demographic, socioeconomic, and prenatal care factors.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of 128,857 Utah birth certificates.
    • Statistical examination of malformation rates by county, maternal age, education, marital status, prenatal care, and birth weight.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Utah's overall malformation rate (11.7 per 1,000 live births) was not high compared to other studies.
  • Higher rates were observed in San Juan County, linked to infrequent prenatal care and lower maternal education, not race.
  • Maternal age and birth order showed minimal impact, while low birth weight was strongly associated with malformations.

    • Conclusions:

    • While Utah's birth defect rates are comparable to national averages, localized disparities exist.
    • Socioeconomic factors like maternal education and access to prenatal care are significant correlates of malformation risk.
    • Low birth weight may be a consequence of severe congenital malformations impacting intrauterine growth.
