Night shift work in early pregnancy and risk of preterm birth among Dutch nurses in the Nightingale Study

This study among 44 638 nulliparous women found no association between working night shifts and risk of PTB. Contrary to earlier studies, we could adjust for PTB risk factors such as workload, maternal disease history and fertility treatment.
