ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the factors influencing the occurrence of macrosomia so as to provide a theoretical basis for the prevention of macrosomia.Methods The data were selected from the findings of Survey on Prevalence and Risk Factors for Birth Defects in Shaanxi Province.This study intended to select data of macrosomia in Xianyang City and its influencing factors for statistical analysis.The rates were compared by χ2 ;the influencing factors were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression.Results The incidence of fetal macrosomia among single live birth neonates in Xianyang was 5.2%.The incidence of macrosomia was 6.5%in males and 4.2% in females,with a significant difference (P <0.001).From 2010 to 2013 the annual incidence rate of macrosomia was 5.4%,6.2%,5.9% and 4.4%,with no significant difference (P =0.151).The incidence rate of macrosomia in urban and rural areas was 6.3% and 5.5%,respectively,without significant difference (P =0.556).The incidence of macrosomia was 3.2% in Binxian County,5.6% in Changwu County,6.7% in Liquan County,5.4% in Qianxian County,8.0% in Wugong County,and 4.2% in Xunyi County,with significant differences (P <0.001).Logistic regression analysis showed that the occurrence of macrosomia was related to the baby's sex,mother's age,the times of pregancy,the time of antenatal care,alcohol intake during pregnancy and father's occupation.Conclusion The incidence of macrosomia of Xianyang from 2010 to 2013 was close to the national average.The sex of baby,mother's age,the times of pregnancy,the times of antenatal care,drinking history during pregnancy and father's occupation may affect the occurrence of macrosomia.
