Disproportion in the falling birth rate

R R Gordon. Br Med J. .

Abstract

Since 1962 there has been a disproportionately greater fall in the number of small (less than 1000 g) live births than total live births: this has applied to Sheffield and to England and Wales but more to the former. This may have affected falling neonatal mortality rates.
