Infant Mortality and Lower Birth Rate – A Cross-sectional Study with Socioeconomic Factors

This study aims to identify risk factors, particularly low birth weight, to reduce socio-economic inequalities and factors that can bring the child's low birth weight. The study found that lower maternal dependence and smoking, along with blood pressure, were essential predictors of LBW. More than 70 percent of non-smokers related to their children's healthy weight.
