BACKGROUND: Preterm birth, early term birth, and low birthweight are associated with childhood wheezing disorders in developed Western settings, but observed associations could be confounded by socio-economic position. This study aims to clarify such associations in a developed non-Western setting with a different confounding structure.
METHODS: Using Cox regression, we examined the adjusted associations of gestational age and birthweight for gestational age with time to first public hospital admission for asthma, bronchitis, and bronchiolitis (International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Version Clinical Modification 466, 490, and 493) from 9 days to 12 years in a population-representative birth cohort of 8327 Chinese children in Hong Kong, a developed setting with less clear social patterning of prematurity or birthweight. Analyses were adjusted for infant and parental characteristics and socio-economic position.
RESULTS: Children born late preterm (34 to <37 weeks) had higher risk of hospitalisation for asthma and other wheezing disorders [hazard ratio (HR) 1.99, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.48, 2.67] than children born full term (39 to <41 weeks). Early term births (37 to <39 weeks) had HR 1.01 (95% CI 0.84, 1.22), late term births (41 to <42 weeks) had HR 0.77 (95% 0.59, 1.01), and post-term births (≥42 weeks) had HR 0.56 (95% CI 0.32, 0.98). Large for gestational age was associated with lower risk of hospitalisation (HR 0.76, 95% CI 0.57, 0.99).
CONCLUSION: The association of preterm birth with childhood wheezing could be biologically mediated. We cannot rule out an association for early term births.
