The role of maternal infections in CL is unclear and might vary by subtype (lymphoblastic, ALL; myeloid, AML) or other characteristics. Understanding this potentially modifiable risk factor could inform prevention strategies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Seventeen hospital- and population-based case\u2013control studies of children born in 1972\u20132019 within the Childhood Cancer and Leukemia International Consortium with self-questionnaires or health-registry data on maternal infection were included (13\u2009638 cases; 26\u2009870 controls). Meta-analyses assessed CL and maternal infection (overall, viral, bacterial, respiratory, influenza\/cold, urinary, genital) stratified by subtype, infection timing, race and ethnicity, and diagnosis age.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The adjusted meta-analysis odds ratio (OR) for any maternal prenatal infection was 1.13 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.91\u20131.40], with similar estimates for ALL and AML. Infection-specific estimates varied. ORs for first-trimester infections were highest for CL and ALL, but not AML, although all CIs contained one. We found modest risk differences between White and Hispanic\/Latino children, most notably for CL diagnosed at &amp;lt;2\u2009years (White children: OR 1.25, 95% CI 1.02\u20131.53; Hispanic\/Latino children: OR 0.79, 95% CI 0.34\u20131.81, subgroup difference P\u2009=\u2009.05), with similar differences for viral and respiratory\/influenza\/cold infections.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Although findings only modestly support an association between maternal prenatal infections and CL, some infections might increase the risk more markedly in young White children compared with Hispanic\/Latino children.
