American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1952
IN RECENT years much has been done to lower the mortality rate of children. Today fewer children die of infection and other preventable disease than in the past. The rate of deaths due to prematurity has remained high, however, and has not kept pace with the general downward trend in infant death rates.

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1957
Summary 1. Survival rates for premature infantsat the University of Virginia Hospital for the years 1949–1955 are presented. 2. Prematurity remains the major cause of death. 3. Advances in controlling infection and hemorrhage have resulted in a more optimistic outlook for the survival of the premature infant.

ANALYSIS OF PREMATURE MORTALITY RATES
Pediatrics, 1950During the years of 1941 to 1946, 2,910 premature infants were admitted to the Premature Station of the Children's Division of Cook County Hospital. Of this number 17.9% died. The influence of birth weight on survival rate was demonstrated. There were more female premature infants than males (1.23:1).

Premature mortality in former Yugoslavia
European Journal of Epidemiology, 1994To evaluate the level of health attained before the war started, premature mortality from all causes in the former Yugoslavia was analyzed by republics and provinces in two respective periods. Premature mortality, measured by the crude rate of years of potential life lost, fell from 12,762.6 in 1970 to 6,320.1 per 100,000 population aged 0-64 in 1990 ...

Methodological Alternatives for Measuring Premature Mortality
American Journal of Preventive Medicine, 1988Although crude and age-adjusted mortality statistics are frequently used to quantify public health problems, they are heavily influenced by the underlying disease processes of the elderly. Alternative measures have been developed to reflect the mortality experience of younger age groups (i.e., premature mortality).

Premature Unspecified Stroke Mortality
2018Strokes are the brain equivalent of heart attacks and have similar underlying causes such as blocking of brain arteries by fatty plaque or hardening of arteries into inelasticity. Thus, many of the same factors that contribute to heart attacks also contribute to stroke: overweight/obesity, smoking, alcohol, stress, and chronic striving.
