The macrosomia review included 8 papers [13-17,19,20,23] and had 17,209 women in the control population
and 312 women in the post-surgical population. As compared to the control population, there was a
reduction in the rates of macrosomia found among the post-surgical population (OR 0.251, 95% CI
0.223-0.281, P = 0.000) [Figure 8].
