Background: We sought to examine whether age at immigration and length of residence were associated with preterm and small-for-gestational age (SGA) delivery among immigrant women in Denmark.
Methods: We included all live singleton deliveries from Danish-born women (1626880) and women from the five largest immigrant groups (68936) from 1978 to 2007. Data from the Danish Medical Birth Registry were linked to: parental country of origin, length of residence and age at immigration.
