We studied the prevalence of anemia during pregnancy and its relationship with low birth weight (LBW; birth weight = 110 g/L) during the third trimester, women with severe anemia (Hb < 80 g/L) were at higher risk of LBW after adjustment for potential confounding factors (prevalence ratio [PR] = 2.8; 95% confidence interval [14-5.6]).
