Women's experiences of different kinds of abusive behavior by their partners were studied in relation to birth weight of the women's infants and other pregnancy outcome measures. Eighty-four women who delivered a low-birth-weight (< 2500 g) infant (cases) and 90 women who delivered an infant with higher birth weight (controls) were interviewed in a case-control study. Information about the partners' behavior during conflicts were obtained by use of a modified Conflict Tactics Scale. Different interpersonal conflict behaviors were categorized as negative verbal interaction or moderate or severe physical abuse. Women who had experienced moderate or severe violence in a relationship also had experienced negative verbal interaction from their partner. Low birth weight was not associated with experiences of any interpersonal conflict behavior in the total sample (OR 0.75, 95% CI 0.42-1.37). Among women with a low birth weight infant, mean birth weight was 261 g lower among those who reported any interpersonal conflict behavior during pregnancy. Birth of a low-birth-weight infant was not associated with abuse in a wide sense. Also, such abuse was unassociated with a variety of other complications during pregnancy, lifestyle characteristics, or pregnancy outcome measures.
研究了女性伴侣的不同虐待行为经历与女性婴儿出生体重及其他妊娠结局指标之间的关系。在一项病例对照研究中，对84名分娩低体重（<2500克）婴儿的女性（病例组）和90名分娩出生体重较高婴儿的女性（对照组）进行了访谈。通过使用改良的冲突策略量表获取有关伴侣在冲突期间行为的信息。不同的人际冲突行为被归类为负面言语互动或中度或重度身体虐待。在恋爱关系中经历过中度或重度暴力的女性也经历过伴侣的负面言语互动。在总样本中，低出生体重与任何人际冲突行为经历均无关联（比值比0.75，95%置信区间0.42 - 1.37）。在分娩低体重婴儿的女性中，报告在孕期有任何人际冲突行为的女性，其平均出生体重低261克。低体重儿的出生与广义上的虐待并无关联。此外，这种虐待与孕期的各种其他并发症、生活方式特征或妊娠结局指标也没有关联。
