Wealth quintile-specific logistic regression for the association between cesarean delivery and neonatal mortality in Kenya and Tanzania, 2014–2016
Wealth quintiles | Adjusted odds ratios (95% CI) |
---|---|
Poorest (n = 1044) | 4.4 (1.2–16.3) |
Poor (n = 1313) | 1.0 (0.1–7.8) |
Middle (n = 1528) | 0.5 (0.1–2.3) |
Rich (n = 2025) | 2.4 (0.9–6.3) |
Richest (n = 2014) | 1.3 (0.5–3.4) |
Adjusted for maternal factors (maternal age, parity, BMI, excluding education), fetal risk factors (multiple births and birthweight) and number of antenatal visits. Missing data were excluded from analysis
