Maternal Dietary Caffeine Consumption and Risk of Birth Defects in the National Birth Defects Prevention Study, 1997-2011. Birth Defects Research, 115(9), 921-932.Abstract
BACKGROUND: Caffeine consumption is common during pregnancy, but published associations with birth defects are mixed. We updated estimates of associations between prepregnancy caffeine consumption and 48 specific birth defects from the National Birth Defects Prevention Study (NBDPS) for deliveries from 1997 to 2011.METHODS: NBDPS was a large population-based case-control study conducted in 10 U.S. states.
