TY - JOUR T1 - CEnter takes broader look at preterm birth AU - Kuehn BM Y1 - 2012/12/19 N1 - 10.1001/jama.2012.90690 JO - JAMA SP - 2448 EP - 2448 VL - 308 IS - 23 N2 - Recent data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) suggest a small decline in preterm birth in the United States over the past 5 years (http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr61/nvsr61_05.pdf). Yet preterm birth rates in the United States remain about 30% higher now than in the early 1980s, according to the March of Dimes, and research hasn't made much headway in understanding what has caused this trend and how to reverse it.
