Flint and colleagues suggested that when midwives get to know the women for whom they provide care, interventions are minimised.22 The Albany midwifery practice, with an unselected population, has a rate for normal vaginal births of 77 %, with 35 % of women having a home birth.23 A review of care for women at low
risk of complications has shown that continuity of midwifery care is generally associated with lower intervention rates than standard maternity care.24 Variation
in normal birth rates
between services (62 % -80 %), however, seems to be greater than outcome
differences between «high continuity» and «traditional care» groups at the same unit.25 26 27 Use of epidural analgesia, for example, varies widely

For healthy multiparous women with a low
risk pregnancy, there are no
differences in adverse perinatal outcomes
between planned births at home or
in a midwifery unit compared with planned births
in an obstetric unit
Most studies of homebirth
in other countries have found no statistically significant
differences in perinatal outcomes
between home and hospital births for women at low
risk of complications.36, 37,39 However, a recent study
in the United States showed poorer neonatal outcomes for births occurring at home or
in birth centres.40 A meta - analysis
in the same year demonstrated higher perinatal mortality associated with homebirth41 but has been strongly criticised on methodological grounds.5, 42 The Birthplace
in England study, 43 the largest prospective cohort study on place of birth for women at low
risk of complications, analysed a composite outcome, which included stillbirth and early neonatal death among other serious morbidity.
Among 64 538 low -

Rates of obstetrical intervention are high
in U.S. hospitals, and we found large absolute differences in the risks of these interventions between planned out - of - hospital births and in - hospital births.38 In contrast, serious adverse fetal and neonatal outcomes are infrequent in all the birth settings we assessed, and the absolute differences in risk that we observed between planned birth locations were correspondingly small; for example, planned out - of - hospital births were associated with an excess of less than 1 fetal death per 1000 deliveries in multivariate and propensity - score - adjusted analyse

In multiple studies, lactation is associated with reduced maternal risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus.12, 22 Several studies have found differences in diabetes prevalence among postmenopausal women.22, 23 However, the only study to measure incident disease found that the association between breastfeeding and incident type 2 diabetes mellitus disappeared after 15 years after a woman's last birth.12 Thus, we limited the effect of lactation on type 2 diabetes mellitus accordingl

To assess the robustness of the results of our regression analysis, we performed covariate adjustment with derived propensity scores to calculate the absolute
risk difference (details are provided
in the Supplementary Appendix, available with the full text of this article at NEJM.org).14, 15 To calculate the adjusted absolute
risk difference, we used predictive margins and G - computation (i.e., regression - model — based outcome prediction
in both exposure settings: planned
in - hospital and planned out - of - hospital birth).16, 17 Finally, we conducted post hoc analyses to assess associations
between planned out - of - hospital birth and outcomes (cesarean delivery and a composite of perinatal morbidity and mortality), which were stratified according to parity, maternal age, maternal education, and
risk level.
Absolute inequality measures reflect not only inequalities across socioeconomic subgroups but also public health importance of the outcome
in consideration, and they could provide different, even contradictory, patterns of inequalities from relative measures
in a given outcome.21, 22 However, measuring absolute inequality is often neglected
in health inequalities research.23 Relative
risks (RRs) and absolute
risk differences (RDs) of discontinuing breastfeeding among mothers with lower education compared with mothers with complete university education (reference category) were separately estimated
in the intervention and
in the control group and then compared
between the two groups.
Restriction of the analyses to low
risk women without complicating conditions at the start of care
in labour narrowed the cost
differences between planned places of birth: total mean costs were # 1511 for an obstetric unit, # 1426 for an alongside midwifery unit, # 1405 for a free standing midwifery unit, and for # 1027 the home (table 2 ⇓).
A 2011 BMJ study of 65,000 English births found that home birth carried a higher
