Fetal growth restriction and preterm delivery are commonly regarded as major pathways through which conditions in the developing world affect infant survival.

Tanzanian babies were slightly smaller on average (43g), but fewer were preterm (&lt;37weeks) (10.0 vs. 16.2%). Applying the USA weight\u2010specific mortality rates to Tanzanian babies born at term suggested that birthweight does not play a role in their increased mortality relative to USA blacks. <jats:italic>Conclusions.<\/jats:italic> Higher mortality independent of birthweight and preterm delivery for Tanzanian babies suggests the need to address the contribution of other pathways to further reduce the excess perinatal mortality.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0412.2011.01195.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,26]],"date-time":"2011-05-26T04:16:26Z","timestamp":1306383386000},"page":"1100-1106","update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Birthweight, preterm birth and perinatal mortality: a comparison of black babies in Tanzania and the USA"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"90","author":[{"given":"NDEMA ABU","family":"HABIB","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"ALLEN J.","family":"WILCOX","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"ANNE KJERSTI","family":"DALTVEIT","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"OLGA","family":"BASSO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"JOHN","family":"SHAO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"OLOLA","family":"ONEKO","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"ROLV TERJE","family":"LIE","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,6,27]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_2","first-page":"1","volume-title":"Make every mother and child count","author":"The World Health Report","year":"2005"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_2","volume-title":"Country, Regional and Global Estimates","author":"Neonatal and Perinatal Mortality","year":"2006"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2105\/AJPH.91.10.1636"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1471-0528.2003.02153.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-3016.1995.tb00143.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.273.9.709"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/30.6.1233"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_8_9_2","first-page":"S5","article-title":"Levels and patterns of intrauterine growth retardation in developing countries","volume":"52","author":"de Onis M","year":"1998","journal-title":"Eur J Clin Nutr"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/ije\/12.3.314"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_11_2","unstructured":"WilcoxA.Analysis of Birth weight and Infant mortality: Analysis program 2000.
