To examine the relationship of individual and composite number of unmet basic needs (housing, energy, food, and healthcare hardships) in the past year with preterm birth status among children aged 0-24 months.
We examined cross-sectional 2011-18 data of 17,926 families with children aged 0-24 months. We examined children born <31 weeks', 31-33 weeks', and 34-36 weeks' gestation versus term (≥37 weeks) using multivariable multinomial logistic regression.
At least 1 unmet basic need occurred among ≥60% of families with preterm children, compared to 56% of families with term children (p = 0.007). Compared to term, children born ≤30 weeks' had increased odds of healthcare hardships (aOR 1.28 [1.04, 1.56]) and children born 34-36 weeks' had increased odds of 1 (aOR 1.19 [1.05, 1.35]) and ≥2 unmet needs (aOR 1.15 [1.01, 1.31]).
Unmet basic needs were more common among families with preterm, compared to term children.
探讨过去一年中未满足的基本需求（住房、能源、食品和医疗困难）的个体数量及综合数量与0 - 24个月儿童早产状况之间的关系。
我们研究了2011 - 2018年17,926个有0 - 24个月儿童家庭的横断面数据。我们使用多变量多项逻辑回归分析了孕周小于31周、31 - 33周、34 - 36周出生的儿童与足月儿（≥37周）的情况。
早产儿童家庭中至少有一项未满足基本需求的情况在≥60%的家庭中出现，而足月儿家庭这一比例为56%（p = 0.007）。与足月儿相比，孕周≤30周出生的儿童出现医疗困难的几率增加（调整后比值比[aOR]为1.28[1.04, 1.56]），孕周34 - 36周出生的儿童出现1项（aOR为1.19[1.05, 1.35]）及≥2项未满足需求的几率增加（aOR为1.15[1.01, 1.31]）。
与足月儿家庭相比，早产儿童家庭中未满足的基本需求更为常见。
