Abstract
"This paper examines how neonatal mortality has changed in the Czech Republic during the [1990s], examining trends in the distribution of birth weights and in birth weight specific neonatal mortality. It examines how these have varied in different parts of the country and, to ascertain the scope for further improvement, it compares them with corresponding values from Sweden, a country with one of the lowest neonatal mortality rates in Europe." excerptKeywords: Biology; Birth Weight; Body Weight; Causes Of Death; Comparative Studies; Czech Republic; Demographic Factors; Developed Countries; Eastern Europe; Europe; Infant Mortality; Mortality; Neonatal Mortality; Northern Europe; Physiology; Population; Population Dynamics; Research Methodology; Scandinavia; Studies; Sweden; Time Factors
