Higher parity, regardless of socioeconomic status, is associated with increased maternal body mass index (BMI). In this study, we examined the relationship between parity, maternal obesity, and fetal outcomes in a large sample of mother-neonate pairs from Lower Saxony, Germany.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec id=\"j_jpm-2020-0614_abs_002\">\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>This retrospective cohort study examined pseudonymized data of a non-selected singleton cohort from Lower Saxony\u2019s statewide quality assurance initiative. 448,963 cases were included.

This effect was present across all parity groups. Fetal presentation did not differ between BMI groups, except for the increased risk of high longitudinal position and shoulder dystocia in obese women. Maternal obesity was also associated with an increased risk of premature birth, low arterial cord blood pH and low 5-min APGAR scores.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec id=\"j_jpm-2020-0614_abs_004\">\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Maternal obesity increases the risk of adverse neonatal outcomes. There is a positive correlation between parity and increased maternal BMI. Weight-dependent fetal risk factors increase with parity, while parity-dependent outcomes occur less frequently in multipara. Prevention and intervention programs for women planning to become pregnant can be promising measures to reduce pregnancy and birth complications.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1515\/jpm-2020-0614","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,25]],"date-time":"2021-10-25T20:37:32Z","timestamp":1635194252000},"page":"167-175","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["The impact of parity and maternal obesity on the fetal outcomes of a non-selected Lower Saxony population"],"prefix":"10.1515","volume":"50","author":[{"given":"Lars","family":"Brodowski","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Medicine , Hannover Medical School , Hannover , Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Niels","family":"Rochow","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics , Paracelsus Medical University , Nuremberg , Germany"},{"name":"Department of Pediatrics , Univesity Hospital Rostock , Rostock , Germany"},{"name":"Department of Pediatrics , McMaster University , Hamilton , ON , Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Efrah I.","family":"Yousuf","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pediatrics , McMaster University , Hamilton , ON , Canada"},{"name":"Centre for Metabolism, Obesity and Diabetes Research, McMaster University , Hamilton , ON , Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fabian","family":"Kohls","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Medicine , Hannover Medical School , Hannover , Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Constantin S.","family":"von Kaisenberg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Medicine , Hannover Medical School , Hannover , Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Silvia","family":"Berlage","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Center for Quality and Management in Health Care, \u00c4rztekammer Niedersachsen , Hannover , Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Manfred","family":"Voigt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology , University Medical Center Freiburg, University of Freiburg , Freiburg , Germany"},{"name":"Biological Anthropology, Medical Faculty, University of Freiburg , Freiburg , Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"374","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,26]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023033123352229211_j_jpm-2020-0614_ref_001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Bianco, AT, Smilen, SW, Davis, Y, Lopez, S, Lapinski, R, Lockwood, CJ.
