Data ID 2242
Factor Interval between renovation and moving-in(<1 months)--3 months before pregnancy
Description An increased risk for giving birth to offspring with cardiac defects was found in only two groups where the mother moved into the decorated house either during 3 months before pregnancy (AOR: 2.38, 95%CI:1.03 to 5.48) or the first trimester (AOR: 4.00, 95%CI: 1.62 to 9.86), when the move-in occurred less than one month after renovation.
Biomarker NA
Classification B3 (environmental factor - exposure history)
Association
