Background: Overweight and obesity are global issues, especially among women of childbearing age, linked to adverse maternal and neonatal outcomes. These risks vary by age, race, and ethnicity, with increasing rates among immigrant and minority women. This study compares overweight and obesity rates, pregnancy weight gain, and neonatal outcomes in Turkish and Syrian immigrant/refugee women.

Gestational weight gain (GWG) is critical for maternal and neonatal health, but excessive GWG can lead to complications such as gestational diabetes, hypertension, and increased obesity risk later in life. Minoritized and immigrant women often face higher risks of excessive GWG. This cross-sectional study assessed Central American women's beliefs and concerns about GWG, the receipt of advice from healthcare providers, and sources of information for healthy weight management during pregnancy.

Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the perinatal outcomes of Vietnamese women in Germany, who represent 0.25% of the population, particularly comparing them to non-Vietnamese women.
- Data from births between 2016 and 2019 at a Berlin hospital showed that while Vietnamese women had lower antenatal screening attendance, they experienced similar rates of 'ideal pregnancy outcomes' compared to their non-Vietnamese counterparts.
- Factors like living in refugee shelters appeared to reduce the likelihood of caesarean sections and neonatal transfers, but having a Vietnamese migration background increased the risk of severe perineal tears.
