Title |
Francophone and Anglophone Perinatal Health: Temporal and Regional Inequalities in a Canadian Setting, 1981-2008
|
Abstract |
The authors evaluate temporal and inequalities in adverse birth outcomes between Anglophone and Francophone women in Quebec between 1981 and 2008. In their examination of preterm births (PTB) and small-for-gestational-age (SGA) births, they found that both birth rates favoured Anglophones over Francophones during the twenty-seven year period, but the linguistic gap was generally stable over time for PTB but narrowed or reversed (depending on region) for SGA births.
