 note = {This study was conducted to determine whether the obstetrical and regional factors were related to the increase in the percent of low birthweight (LBW:<2,500g) infants in Kumamoto Prefecture. Analyses for frequency of LBW infants, and a multiple regression and logistic regression were conducted using data from the vital statistics between 1968 and 1997 and regional indicators concerned with LBW infants from official registered statistical data between 1975 and 1997. The relationship between perinatal mortality rate and LBW infants over 30 years, in kumamoto Pref. was classified in three terms (the first term: 1974-1976, the second term: 1977-1991, the third term: 1992-1997).
In the third term, the number of moderate-LBW (MLBW: 2,000 to 2,500 g) infants of all LBW infants has especially increased more significantly in the Urban agriculture area. The influence of obstetrical factors for LBW infants did not change markedly during three terms, even though those factors such as infant's sex, parity, maternal age or gestational age were associated with risks of LBW infants. The analysis revealed that the influence of regional factors were actualized to LBW infants in the third term, especially the Urban area had a marked effect on the increase in LBW infants, whereas, farm villages in Hilly or Moutainous areas had less effect on the increase in LBW infants.},
