Abstract
Objective: Investigate how hypertension during pregnancy (HDP) and depression during pregnancy (DDP) independently and jointly affect infant birth outcomes. Methods: This population-based, retrospective cohort study included a sample of 68,052 women who participated in PRAMS 2016–2018 survey. Poisson regression was used for adjusted relative risks (aRRs). Results: Compared to women without HDP and DDP, aRRs for PTB and LBW among women with both HDP and DDP are 2.04 (95% CI 1.73, 2.42) and 2.84 (95% CI 2.27, 3.56), respectively, albeit lower than the expected joint effect of risk. Conclusion: DDP may modify the association between HDP and PTB, LBW.
