To determine the prevalence of individual vitamin and mineral supplement use during pregnancy and their relationships with selected characteristics of mothers, data from the 1988 National Maternal and Infant Health Survey were analyzed. The responses of 18,549 mothers were used in the analysis, which consisted of both univariate and multivariate statistical analyses. The prevalence of use for each of six supplements varied from 1.89% for zinc to 33.45% for iron. The use of these supplements did not appear to be strongly intercorrelated. Young age was associated with iron use, black race was associated with iron and vitamin A supplementation, and prenatal care and Women with Infants and Children food were associated with iron and vitamin A intake. Smoking was associated with folic acid and iron use, alcohol consumption was associated with folic acid use, and low family income was associated with iron use. The findings of the study may be useful in the future for more specific epidemiologic and clinical studies on supplementation during pregnancy.
为确定孕期个体维生素和矿物质补充剂的使用 prevalence 及其与母亲选定特征的关系，对1988年全国母婴健康调查的数据进行了分析。分析使用了18549名母亲的回复，包括单变量和多变量统计分析。六种补充剂中每种的使用 prevalence 从锌的1.89%到铁的33.45%不等。这些补充剂的使用似乎没有很强的相互关联性。年轻与铁的使用有关，黑人种族与铁和维生素A补充有关，产前护理以及参加妇女、婴儿和儿童营养补充计划与铁和维生素A的摄入有关。吸烟与叶酸和铁的使用有关，饮酒与叶酸的使用有关，家庭收入低与铁的使用有关。该研究结果未来可能有助于开展关于孕期补充剂的更具体的流行病学和临床研究。
