Joint Modeling of Birth Outcomes Using a Copula Distributional Regression Approach. [PDF]

open access: yesHealth Econ
ABSTRACT Low birth weight and preterm birth are key indicators of neonatal health, influencing both immediate and long‐term infant outcomes. While low birth weight may reflect fetal growth restrictions, preterm birth captures disruptions in gestational development. Ignoring the potential interdependence between these variables may lead to an incomplete
