After adjustment for confounders, South Asian (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.42, 95% CI 1.24\u20131.62), Oceanian (aOR 1.45, 95% CI 1.17\u20131.80) and African (aOR 1.46, 96% CI 1.19\u20131.80) born women had significantly higher odds of stillbirth that AUS\/NZ\u2010born women. Intervention rates increased from the earlier to the later time period by 13.1% across the study population, but the increase was larger in African and South Asian\u2010born women (18.1% and 19.6% respectively) than AUS\/NZ\u2010born women (11.2%). There was a significant interaction between ethnicity and time period for South Asian\u2010born women in the all\u2010births model, with their stillbirth rates becoming closer to AUS\/NZ\u2010born
