This study aimed to estimate the prevalence of cardiovascular lifestyle risk factors among pregnant women in Burkina Faso and identify their associated factors. Pregnant women who attended antenatal care services between December 2018 and March 2019 were included in this study. A modified Poisson regression model was used to estimate adjusted prevalence ratios (aPR) with a 95% confidence interval. A total of 1027 pregnant women participated in this study. The prevalence of alcohol consumption, tobacco use, inadequate physical activity, and insufficient consumption of fruits and vegetables were 10.2% [8.5\u201312.2], 3.0% [2.1\u20134.3], 79.4% [76.9\u201381.8], and 53.5% [50.5\u201356.6], respectively. The prevalence of more than one cardiovascular lifestyle risk factor in pregnant women was 50.9% [48.0\u201354.0]. The predictors significantly associated with more than one cardiovascular lifestyle risk factor were women over 30 years old aPR 1.26; 95% CI [1.03\u20131.53]), women living in fourth wealth index households (aPR 1.23; 95% CI [1.06\u20131.42]), in semi-urban areas (aPR 5.46; 95% CI [4.34\u20136.88]), and women with no occupation (aPR 1.31; 95% CI [1.18\u20131.44]). The prevalence of more than one cardiovascular lifestyle risk factor was high during pregnancy in Burkina Faso. Women of childbearing age should be advised on how healthy behaviors can lead to improved pregnancy outcomes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph20010102","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,22]],"date-time":"2022-12-22T01:33:12Z","timestamp":1671672792000},"page":"102","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Prevalence and Factors Associated with Cardiovascular Lifestyle Risk Factors among Pregnant Women in Burkina Faso: Evidence from a Cross-Sectional Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5428-4692","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Franck","family":"Garanet","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"D\u00e9partement Biom\u00e9dical et Sant\u00e9 Publique, Institut de Recherche en Science de la Sant\u00e9 (IRSS), Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique et Technologique(CNRST), Ouagadougou 03 BP 7047, Burkina Faso"},{"name":"Laboratoire de Sant\u00e9 Publique, Ecole Doctorale Science de la Sant\u00e9 (ED2S), Universit\u00e9 Joseph Ki-Zerbo, Ouagadougou 03 BP 7021, Burkina Faso"},{"name":"Centre de Recherche en Epid\u00e9miologie, Biostatistique et Recherche Clinique Bruxelles, Ecole de Sant\u00e9 Publique, Universit\u00e9 Libre de Bruxelles, 1070 Brussels, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6015-3824","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Abou","family":"Coulibaly","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"D\u00e9partement Biom\u00e9dical et Sant\u00e9 Publique, Institut de Recherche en Science de la Sant\u00e9 (IRSS), Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique et Technologique(CNRST), Ouagadougou 03 BP 7047, Burkina Faso"},{"name":"Institut Africain de Sant\u00e9 Publique, Ouagadougou 12 BP 199, Burkina Faso"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Adama","family":"Baguiya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"D\u00e9partement Biom\u00e9dical et Sant\u00e9 Publique, Institut de Recherche en Science de la Sant\u00e9 (IRSS), Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique et Technologique(CNRST), Ouagadougou 03 BP 7047, Burkina Faso"},{"name":"Institut Africain de Sant\u00e9 Publique, Ouagadougou 12 BP 199, Burkina Faso"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fati","family":"Kirakoya-Samadoulougou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre de Recherche en Epid\u00e9miologie, Biostatistique et Recherche Clinique Bruxelles, Ecole de Sant\u00e9 Publique, Universit\u00e9 Libre de Bruxelles, 1070 Brussels, Belgium"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2426-7669","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Seni","family":"Kouanda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"D\u00e9partement Biom\u00e9dical et Sant\u00e9 Publique, Institut de Recherche en Science de la Sant\u00e9 (IRSS), Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique et Technologique(CNRST), Ouagadougou 03 BP 7047, Burkina Faso"},{"name":"Institut Africain de Sant\u00e9 Publique, Ouagadougou 12 BP 199, Burkina Faso"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1223","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(20)30752-2","article-title":"Global burden of 87 risk factors in 204 countries and territories, 1990\u20132019: A systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019","volume":"396","author":"Murray","year":"2020","journal-title":"Lancet"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"677","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCRESAHA.117.308903","article-title":"Reducing the Global Burden of Cardiovascular Disease, Part 1: The Epidemiology and Risk Factors","volume":"121","author":"Joseph","year":"2017","journal-title":"Circ.
