Alcohol and tobacco use among preconception women in India
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background Most of the women who use alcohol and tobacco before pregnancy likely to use alcohol and tobacco during pregnancy. The objectives of this study was to describe alcohol and tobacco use, and to identify associated characteristics during preconception period.Methods The Indian National Family Health Survey-4 was used. A total of 65,238 preconception, young, married women were included and analysed usingbivariate and multivariate analyses statistical techniques.Results The data revealed that 4.3% of preconception women in India were using alcohol and tobacco. The prevalence of alcohol and tobacco use was higher among older women (5.6%), Scheduled Tribes (14.2%), living in rural areas (5.0%), non-educated (8.9%), poorest households (9.1%), northeast region (25.0%) and with a low body mass index (BMI) (6.2%). The adjusted odds ratios shown that after controlling for important background factors, being Hindu, from scheduled tribes, already having children, being underweight, from poorest households and Northeast region had higher odds of alcohol and tobacco use compared to with their corresponding reference groups.Conclusion Findings suggest that preconception women of reproductive age who use alcohol and tobacco should be strongly encouraged and supported to quit alcohol and tobacco use before pregnancy for preventing adverse birth outcomes.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
