Introduction : 99% of 4million neonatal mortality occur in developing countries every year. Mortality rate of newborns accounts for 18.3 per 1000 live birth that comprised 69% of IMR and 56% of Under 5 mortality in IRAN. A  Comparison of statistical trend between infant and newborn rate from 1988 to 2001 revealed a considerable decrease in IMR but slightly decrease in NMR. training postnatal mo...

Neonatal Mortality Rate (NMR) can be defined as the number of newborn deaths’ aged 0 to 28 days. The most significant factor influenced NMR is low birth weight of newborn babies approximately 48%, followed by asphyxia 37% and sepsis 32.5%. This paper deploys a Burr XII distribution to model the Non-Normal Neonatal Weight data. The parameters of the fitted Burr XII distribution are estimated usi...

background: the present study was conducted to assess the trend of geographical disparities in child and maternal mortality rates in 20 districts of east azerbaijan, in the northwest of iran, between 1999 and 2013.   methods: data on to health indicators between 1999 and 2013, extracted from population registry panels (zij), was made available for the study by the east azerbaijan health center....

Background: Although many efforts made for the advancement of medical science, it is distributed inequitably despite of all existing financial and human resources facilities. Children as the most important and vulnerable groups of society are influenced by these inequities. The Objective of this study is comparison of children health indices in rich and poor rural zones in Mashhad/Iran. Methods...

backgroundeach year about 32.4 million of children are born with low birth weight, which is below the 10th percentile for their gestational ages; moreover, about fifteen million of them are premature. actually, about 60% of neonatal deaths occur in low birth weight neonates related to their prematurity. this study aimed to determine the neonatal death rate and the most common causes of the hosp...

OBJECTIVES Studies on factors affecting neonatal mortality have rarely considered the impact of place of delivery on neonatal mortality. This study provides epidemiological information regarding the impact of place of delivery on neonatal deaths. METHODS We analyzed data from the Rufiji Health and Demographic Surveillance System (RHDSS) in Tanzania. A total of 5,124 live births and 166 neonat...
