Preterm birth (PTB) can be categorized as either spontaneous (sPTB) or medically indicated (mPTB), resulting from distinct pathophysiologic processes such labor preeclampsia, respectively. A growing body literature has demonstrated the impacts nitrogen dioxide (NO2) benzene exposure on PTB, though few studies have investigated how these associations may differ by PTB subtype. We NO2 with sPTB mPTB among 18,616 singleton...
