Trends in low-birth-weight (<2,500 g) rates per 100 births by race (white and African American) from 1974 to 2006 in South Carolina. During the study period, African Americans maintained rates nearly 2-times greater than whites. Rates of low birth weights are increasing in all births regardless of race.
