OBJECTIVE
We examined the relation between maternal occupation and residential proximity to industrial sources of pollution in two case-control study populations of birth defects.
METHODS
Occupational and residential information were obtained from Texas live birth records and maternal interviews of Texas participants in the National Birth Defects Prevention Study. Residential proximity to industrial sources of air pollution was determined through geographic information systems.
RESULTS
With adjustment for maternal race/ethnicity and education, women in production occupations were twice as likely (95% confidence interval 1.3 to 3.0) to reside near these facilities than women in management/professional occupations and more likely to reside near such facilities than other occupational groups.
CONCLUSION
Occupation and residence appear related; therefore, both sources of potential exposures may need to be considered to understand the relative contribution of either source to risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes.
目的
在两项出生缺陷病例对照研究人群中，我们研究了母亲职业与居住地距工业污染源的距离之间的关系。
方法
职业和居住信息来自得克萨斯州的出生记录以及参与国家出生缺陷预防研究的得克萨斯州参与者的母亲访谈。通过地理信息系统确定居住地与工业空气污染源的距离。
结果
在对母亲的种族/民族和教育程度进行调整后，从事生产性职业的女性居住在这些设施附近的可能性是从事管理/专业职业女性的两倍（95%置信区间为1.3至3.0），且比其他职业群体更有可能居住在这类设施附近。
结论
职业和居住似乎有关联；因此，为了解任一来源对不良妊娠结局风险的相对影响，可能需要同时考虑这两个潜在暴露源。
