In the Republic of Argentina, there is a lack of research evaluating CFEs regionally and comprehensively by tools based on geographic information systems (GIS). This study aimed to characterize the spatial patterns of CFEs, through variables associated with its three dimensions (political, individual and environmental), and their association with the spatial distribution in urban localities in Argentina. CFEs were assessed in 657 localities with \u22655,000 inhabitants. Data on births and CFEs were obtained from nationally available open-source data and through remote sensing. The spatial distribution and presence of clusters were assessed using hotspot analysis, purely spatial analysis (SaTScan), Moran\u2019s Index, semivariograms and spatially restrained multivariate clustering. Clusters of low risk for LBW, macrosomia, and preterm births were observed in the central-east part of the country, while high-risk clusters identified in the North, Centre and South. In the central-eastern region, low-risk clusters were found coinciding with hotspots of public policy coverage, high night-time light, social security coverage and complete secondary education of the household head in areas with low risk for negative outcomes of the birth variables studied, with the opposite with regard to households with unsatisfied basic needs and predominant land use classes in peri-urban areas of crops and herbaceous cover. These results show that the exploration of spatial patterns of CFEs is a necessary preliminary step before developing explanatory models and generating novel findings valuable for decision-making.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4081\/gh.2024.1249","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,7]],"date-time":"2024-05-07T12:58:20Z","timestamp":1715086700000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Spatial pattern analysis of the impact of community food environments on foetal macrosomia, preterm births and low birth weight"],"prefix":"10.4081","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"Micaela Natalia","family":"Campero","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1717-3923","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Carlos Mat\u00edas","family":"Scavuzzo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carlos Marcelo","family":"Scavuzzo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mar\u00eda Dolores","family":"Rom\u00e1n","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2549","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"16041","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Almli LM, Ely DM, Ailes EC, Abouk R, Grosse SD et al., 2020.
