INTRODUCTION
Deficiency of folic acid (FA) has been identified as a risk factor for neural tube defects (NTDs) as well as other congenital anomalies. Thus, periconceptional folate supplementation is recommended for all women planning to get pregnant.
METHODS
We conducted a KAP (knowledge, attitude, practice) survey to investigate the use of FA and its appropriateness. The survey included a sample of 562 women who delivered in the Lazio region between 2013 and 2014. Two logistic regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association between the characteristics of participating women and both the information received on FA intake and its use.
RESULTS
The prevalence of periconceptional FA assumption was 19.4% although 82.2% of the interviewed women had planned their pregnancies.
CONCLUSIONS
It shows that more periconceptional counseling is needed to increase women's awareness on the opportunity of FA supplementation.
引言
叶酸（FA）缺乏已被确定为神经管缺陷（NTDs）以及其他先天性异常的一个风险因素。因此，建议所有计划怀孕的女性在受孕前补充叶酸。
方法
我们开展了一项知识、态度、行为（KAP）调查，以研究叶酸的使用情况及其合理性。该调查涵盖了2013年至2014年在拉齐奥地区分娩的562名女性样本。进行了两项逻辑回归分析，以评估参与调查女性的特征与所获得的叶酸摄入信息及其使用之间的关联。
结果
尽管82.2%的受访女性已计划怀孕，但受孕前叶酸摄入的比例为19.4%。
结论
这表明需要更多受孕前咨询，以提高女性对补充叶酸机会的认识。
