Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the nutritional status of high-risk pregnant women and its impact on their newborns' birth weight at a university hospital in Maceio, Alagoas.
- It examined 149 pregnant women, revealing that 32% were underweight, 48.3% overweight, and 39.6% of newborns were classified as small for gestational age (SGA).
- The findings showed that overweight women were more likely to have large for gestational age (LGA) babies, while insufficient weight gain during pregnancy was linked to SGA babies, highlighting the need for interventions to improve these outcomes.
