Overall, 4062 pregnancies ended in spontaneous abortion. Information on education, income and labour market attachment in the year before pregnancy was drawn from national registers.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Main outcome measure<\/jats:title><jats:p>Spontaneous abortion, that is, fetal death within the first 22\u2005weeks of pregnancy, was the outcome of interest. The authors estimated HRs of spontaneous abortion using Cox regression analysis with gestational age as the underlying time scale.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Women with &lt;10\u2005years of education had an elevated risk of spontaneous abortion when compared with women with &gt;12\u2005years of education (HR 1.19 (95% CI 1.05 to 1.34)). The HR estimates for the four lowest income quintiles were all increased (HRs between 1.09 and 1.15) as compared with the upper quintile but did not differ considerably from each other. In general, no statistically significant association was found between labour market attachment and the risk of spontaneous abortion; however, the group of women on disability pension had an increased HR of spontaneous abortion when compared with women who were employed (HR 1.32 (95% CI 0.82 to 2.13)).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Educational level and income were inversely associated with the risk of spontaneous abortion. As these factors most likely are non-causally related to spontaneous abortion, the findings indicate that factors related to social position, probably of the environmental and behavioural type, may affect spontaneous abortion risk. The study highlights the need for studies addressing such exposures in order to prevent spontaneous abortions.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1136\/bmjopen-2012-001077","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,26]],"date-time":"2012-06-26T18:30:57Z","timestamp":1340735457000},"page":"e001077","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":35,"title":["Socioeconomic position and the risk of spontaneous abortion: a study within the Danish National Birth Cohort"],"prefix":"10.1136","volume":"2","author":[{"given":"Filippa Nyboe","family":"Norsker","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Laura","family":"Espenhain","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sofie","family":"\u00e1 Rogvi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Camilla Schmidt","family":"Morgen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Per Kragh","family":"Andersen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anne-Marie","family":"Nybo Andersen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"239","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2012,6,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"2024051503393348000_2.3.e001077.1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-3016.2000.00266.x"},{"key":"2024051503393348000_2.3.e001077.2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1403494808100938"},{"key":"2024051503393348000_2.3.e001077.3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2307\/3342828"},{"key":"2024051503393348000_2.3.e001077.4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/dyn112"},{"key":"2024051503393348000_2.3.e001077.5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/GRF.0b013e31816f276e"},{"key":"2024051503393348000_2.3.e001077.6","unstructured":"Wilcox AJ .
