Abstract：
BACKGROUND: Women in their reproductive age have tremendous health implications that affect their health and well-being. Anaemia is an indicator of inadequate dietary intake and poor health. Maternal malnutrition significantly impacts maternal and child health outcomes, increasing the mother\'s risk of dying during delivery. High-risk fertility behaviour is a barrier to reducing mother and child mortality. This study aims to examine the level of high-risk fertility behaviour and anaemia among ever-married urban Indian women and also examine the linkages between the both.
METHODS: Based on the National Family Health Survey\'s fifth round of data, the study analyzed 44,225 samples of ever-married urban women. Univariate and bivariate analysis and binary logistic regression have been used for the analysis.
RESULTS: Findings suggested that more than half (55%) of the urban women were anaemic, and about one-fourth (24%) of women had any high-risk fertility behaviour. Furthermore, the results suggest that 20% of women were more vulnerable to anaemia due to high-risk fertility behaviour. For the specific category, 19% and 28% of women were more likely to be anaemic due to single and multiple high-risk fertility. However, after controlling for sociodemographic factors, the findings showed a statistically significant link between high-risk fertility behaviour and anaemia. As a result, 16% of the women were more likely to be anaemic due to high-risk fertility behaviour, and 16% and 24% were more likely to be anaemic due to single and multiple high-risk fertility behaviour, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS: The findings exposed that maternal high-risk fertility behaviour is a significant factor in raising the chance of anaemia in ever-married urban women of reproductive age in forms of the short birth interval, advanced maternal age, and advanced maternal age & higher order. Policy and choice-based family planning techniques should be employed to minimize the high-risk fertility behaviour among Indian urban women. This might aid in the reduction of the malnutrition status of their children.

摘要：
背景：处于生育年龄的妇女具有巨大的健康影响，影响其健康和福祉。贫血是饮食摄入不足和健康状况不佳的指标。孕产妇营养不良显著影响孕产妇和儿童健康结果，增加了母亲在分娩过程中死亡的风险。高危生育行为是降低母婴死亡率的障碍。这项研究旨在研究已婚印度城市妇女的高危生育行为和贫血水平，并研究两者之间的联系。
方法：根据全国家庭健康调查的第五轮数据，这项研究分析了44,225名已婚城市女性的样本。单变量和双变量分析以及二元逻辑回归已用于分析。
结果：研究结果表明，超过一半（55％）的城市妇女贫血，约四分之一(24%)的女性有任何高风险生育行为。此外，结果表明，由于高危生育行为，20%的女性更容易患贫血。对于特定类别，19％和28％的女性由于单身和多重高危生育而更容易贫血。然而,在控制社会人口因素后，研究结果表明,高危生育行为与贫血之间存在显著的统计学联系.因此,由于高危生育行为，16%的女性更容易贫血，16％和24％的人更有可能由于单一和多重高风险生育行为而贫血，分别。
结论：研究结果表明，母亲的高危生育行为是以短出生间隔形式增加已婚城市育龄妇女贫血机会的重要因素。高龄产妇,高龄产妇和更高的顺序。应采用政策和基于选择的计划生育技术，以最大程度地减少印度城市妇女的高风险生育行为。这可能有助于减少其子女的营养不良状况。
