Most terminations were for CAs, although some were for obstetric indications (severe pre\u2010eclampsia, growth restriction, premature rupture of membranes). TOP contributed substantially to overall fetal mortality rates in the two regions with late second\u2010trimester screening. There was no clear association between policies governing screening and pregnancy termination and the proportion of CAs among stillbirths and live births, except in Poland, where neonatal deaths associated with CAs were more frequent, reflecting restrictive pregnancy termination policies.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion\u2002<\/jats:bold> Proportions of TOP among very preterm births varied widely between European regions. Information on terminations should be reported when very preterm live births and stillbirths are compared internationally since national policies related to screening for CAs and the legality and timing of medical terminations differ.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1471-0528.2007.01611.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,2,8]],"date-time":"2008-02-08T15:35:51Z","timestamp":1202484951000},"page":"361-368","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":50,"title":["Termination of pregnancy among very preterm births and its impact on very preterm mortality: results from ten European population\u2010based cohorts in the MOSAIC study"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"115","author":[{"given":"E","family":"Papiernik","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J","family":"Zeitlin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"D","family":"Delmas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"ES","family":"Draper","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J","family":"Gadzinowski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"W","family":"K\u00fcnzel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M","family":"Cuttini","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"D","family":"Di Lallo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"T","family":"Weber","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"L","family":"Koll\u00e9e","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"A","family":"Bekaert","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"G","family":"Br\u00e9art","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"MOSAIC Research Group","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,1,8]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000053901"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-3016.1994.tb00478.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.287.12.1561"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-3016.2005.00666.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0003-3995(01)01091-7"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/uog.1784"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_2","unstructured":"EUROCAT (European Surveillance of Congenital Anomalies).Special report: prenatal screening policies in Europe.
