The effect of ambient air pollution on birth outcomes in Norway
@inproceedings{Ling2022TheEO, title={The effect of ambient air pollution on birth outcomes in Norway}, author={Xiao Chun Ling}, year={2022} }
Ambient air pollution is hazardous to fetus even in countries with relatively low pollution level. In this paper, I examine the effects of ambient air pollution on birth outcomes in Norway. I find that conditional the same sub-postcode and calendar month fixed effects, prenatal exposure to ambient nitric oxide in the last trimester causes significant birth-weight and birth-length losses, whereas other ambient air pollutants such as nitrogen dioxide and sulfur dioxide appear to be at a safe level…

A birth weight of less than 3,000 gm and a body mass index at birth of more than 3.4 were associated with reduced visual acuity and impaired hearing, which could be due to fetal brain programming or due to confounding, by early birth trauma or other factors.
