Abstract：
There is limited data on risk-factors of infantile hemangioma (IH) in African and Arab countries. One hundred thirty-two patients with IH were enrolled and compared to 282 healthy controls. Female sex (odds ratios [OR]: 2.2; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.4-3.6), low birth weight (OR: 4.5; 95% CI 1.9-10.6), and progesterone intake (OR: 38.6; 95% CI 5-296) were the only independent risk factors identified for development of IH, while no associations were found multiple gestation and preeclampsia.
摘要：
在非洲和阿拉伯国家，关于婴儿血管瘤（IH）危险因素的数据有限。招募了132例IH患者，并与282例健康对照进行了比较。女性（优势比[OR]：2.2；95%置信区间[CI]1.4-3.6），低出生体重（OR：4.5；95%CI1.9-10.6），和孕酮摄入量（OR：38.6;95％CI5-296）是唯一确定的IH发展的独立危险因素，而没有发现多胎妊娠和先兆子痫的相关性。
