Background. Low birth weight is a public health indicator that reflects maternal health conditions and the quality of healthcare delivered during pregnancy. Maternal lifestyle is one of the factors associated with low birth weight. Besides, alcohol consumption during pregnancy may interfere in fetal growth. This study aims to analyze the association between maternal consumption of alcohol during pregnancy and low birth weight in a region of low socioeconomic conditions in Brazil. Methods. Case-control study conducted in two public hospitals from the Northeast of Brazil, including 1,612 mothers and their newborns. The group of cases was composed of 402 mothers with low birth weight newborns, and the control group was composed of 1,210 mothers with normal weight newborns (≥2, 00 grams). Data were collected based on self-reported information by mothers and complemented by hospital records. Simple linear regression and logistic regression models were conducted. Results. The majority of women were between 20 and 34 years old (65.3%), non-white (86.3%), married (81.5%), of low income (90.9%) and almost half of them had less than nine years of schooling. This study showed that half of the women consumed alcohol at least once in life and 12.5% of them continued to consume alcohol during pregnancy. The most consumed kind of beverage was beer (96%). The majority of women self-classified their alcohol consumption as rare (65.7%). However, in this study, 44.7% of the women were classified as having high consumption of alcohol (more than 40 grams of absolute alcohol per occasion). The high consumption was associated with LBW (OR adjusted: 2.10; CI 95%: 1.23; 3.58) and in this same group, the average weight reduction at birth was 115 grams (CI 95%: -348.52 to 118.41; p=0.33) compared to newborns of pregnant women who consumed less than 40 grams of alcohol per occasion. Conclusion. Although no association between low and moderate alcohol consumptions and LBW has been found in this study, this does not mean that a secure dose of alcohol ingestion during pregnancy exists. Healthcare actions should be carried out with the intention of ceasing or at least reducing the consumption of alcohol by pregnant women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
