Determinants of the Neonatal Mortality
Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine, 1976A recent sharp decline in the neonatal mortality in our medical center prompted a critical analysis of viral statistics of the newborn service during the years 1966 through 1973. The mean neonatal mortality for the entire period was 15.4 per 1,000 live births, and 11.0 in the period 1972 through 1973.

American Journal of Epidemiology, 1982
A cohort study of neonatal mortality (N = 106) in white singleton births (N = 14,486) in Utah for January-June 1975 was conducted. Using membership and activity in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS or Mormon) as a proxy for parental health practices, i.e., tobacco and alcohol abstinence, differential neonatal mortality rates were ...

Pediatrics, 1978
I was very interested by Dr. Wegman's article on vital statistics (Pediatrics 58:793, December 1976). Nevertheless, I would like to share some reservations that I have concerning the inference he made regarding the decrease in neonatal mortality: "The steady decline in the neonatal mortality rate, almost as rapid as that of the post-neonatal rate, does

Pediatrics, 1984
To the Editor.— Shapiro et al1 are properly cautious in attributing any decline in neonatal mortality to the use of neonatal intensive care. There was no decrease in mortality in 1976, the first year of their area-wide program, when compared with the 1974 to 1975 base line.2 Furthermore, the 17.9% decline in neonatal mortality between ...

Perinatal and neonatal mortality in the advent of the neonatal network
British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2010Infant mortality is highest during the neonatal period. The provision of medical care for low birth weight and premature babies is challenging. Neonatal networks aim to improve outcome, optimize efficiency and increase the quality of care for these infants.

Size at birth and neonatal and postneonatal mortality
Acta Paediatrica, 2002Birthweight is a crude indicator of size at birth. Some neonatologists and obstetricians have advocated the use of ponderal index and birthlength to characterize size at birth. This paper examines the associations between various size‐at‐birth indicators and neonatal and postneonatal mortality, with an emphasis on ponderal index and birthlength.

NEONATAL MORTALITY, THE MALE DISADVANTAGE
Pediatrics, 1971Male infants have an excessive risk of neonatal death by comparison with females. It has never been clear whether this male disadvantage is due to specific disease processes or is a general biologic feature of being male. In an analysis of 2,735 consecutive newborn autopsies, the ratio of males to females was 1.28:, which differs significantly from the

Morbidity and mortality in neonatal kittens
American Journal of Veterinary Research, 1984SUMMARY The mortality patterns of 294 Domestic Shorthair kittens indicated that birth weight was closely related to survivability. Slightly over half of the nonsurviving kittens lost at 0 to 3 days of life were stillborn. Abnormal gross anatomy did not appear to be a major factor in neonatal kitten death.

Strategies for reduction of neonatal mortality
Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1999Infant mortality rates in developed countries have shown significant decreases in recent years. Two-thirds of infant mortality still occurs in the neonatal period and our aim in this study was to review the causes of these neonatal deaths and see where further improvements may be possible.

FETAL GROWTH AND NEONATAL MORTALITY
Pediatrics, 1972Birth weight and calculated fetal age traditionally have served to predict risk of dying in the newborn period. Birth weight describes new-born infants inadequately, and calculated or estimated fetal age is uncertain. In the present study, well-defined fetal growth patterns observed in newborn infants replaced birth weight; crown-heel length was ...
