母亲年龄特定的新生儿死亡风险因种族而异，20多岁的白人风险较低，但黑人则不然。这可能部分是由于黑人相对于白色妇女的健康状况恶化。我们分析了年轻女性的死亡总数，并按也是怀孕风险因素的原因进行分类。在主要的生育年龄，死亡率增加黑人超过白人，通常至少25%。这些指标表明，随着妇女进入青年期，黑人/白色人的健康差异扩大，这表明这种差异可能在黑人/白色人婴儿死亡率差异中发挥作用，值得进一步研究。
Maternal-age-specific neonatal mortality risk differs by race, with the mid-20s risk low for whites but not blacks. This may be partially due to worsening health for black relative to white women. We analyzed deaths to young women in the aggregate and classified by causes that are also pregnancy risk factors. Over the predominant childbearing ages, mortality increases for blacks exceeded those for whites, usually by at least 25%. These indicators that black/white health differences widen as women progress through young adulthood suggest that such discrepancies may play a role in the black/white infant mortality differential, which merits further research.
