Using the logistic regression model, the adjusted odds ratios (aOR) were calculated to assess the risk of NEC in infants born to mothers with placental abruption after controlling for significant confounders. Analyses were repeated after stratifying the population into two birth weight (BW) categories: &lt;1500\u2009g and \u22651500\u2009g.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>The study included 11,597,756 newborns. Placental abruption occurred in 0.16% of the population. NEC was diagnosed in 0.18% of infants, with a higher incidence (2.5%) in those born to mothers with placental abruption (aOR\u2009=\u20091.2, 95% CI: 1.1\u20131.3, <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001).
