    We used data from the National Infant Mortality Surveillance (NIMS) project to compare birthweights and birthweight-specific mortality risks among Native American and White infants. Because race categories in NIMS were limited to White, Black, and all, we studied six states in which greater than 85 per cent of newborns who were neither White nor Black were Native American. In these states, the infant mortality risk (IMR) among Native Americans wa…

The preterm, live-birth rates were not significantly associated with previous induced abortion. Overall, the life table-estimated fetal death ra…

  • Sterilization-associated deaths

    Lilo T Strauss, Carlos M Huezo et al.ARTICLEStudies in Family Planning1984

    Except for data from several geographically limited studies, little is known globally about the number and causes of death associated with surgical sterilization. To identify clinical characteristics and problems leading to deaths related to the procedures, the International Planned Parenthood Federation (IPPF) and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) in the United States collaborated in a global mail survey of 4642 physicians. Usable responses …
