“…Stratification of this population by poverty level showed that the poorest individuals are at higher risk of having children with low birth weight, who consequently present cumulatively the deleterious effects of this condition such as malnutrition, chronic diseases and poorer school performance 12,24 . Barros et al 4 , by stratifying a cohort of almost 6,000 children by family income, showed that in Brazil it is possible to obtain low birth weight indices similar to those of more developed countries. More privileged children presented an incidence of low birth weight of only 4.2%, a little above that reported for Sweden 6 .…”

“…A relationship between poverty and deficient health has been observed throughout history, children being especially vulnerable to the deleterious effects of poverty and ignorance. When compared to children from privileged families, poor children present higher mortality 10,13,24 , are more frequently ill 11,15,24 , are born with a lower weight 4,25 and are more frequently malnourished 1,9,24 . The mechanisms by which poverty affects the health status are diverse and not fully understood.…”
