INFECTION
The data from the study was analysed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software (version 25.0). The results were presented as frequencies and percentages for categorical variables. The association between infection in mothers and neonates and perinatal risk factors was tested using the Chi-square and Fisher’s exact tests, with statistical significance set at P < 0.05. The relative risk (RR) of infection was calculated with a 95% confidence interval (CI) using the electronic version of the MedCalc Relative Risk Statistical Calculation Software.
