OBJECTIVE: We aimed to understand the mortality risks of vulnerable newborns (defined as preterm and/or born weighing smaller or larger compared to a standard population), in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). DESIGN: Descriptive multi-country, secondary analysis of individual-level study dat...

OBJECTIVE: To examine the prevalence of large-for-gestational age (LGA) and macrosomia in 23 countries between 2000 and 2021. DESIGN: Descriptive multi-country secondary data analysis. SETTING: Subnational, population-based cohort studies (k = 45 for LGA, k = 25 for macrosomia) in 23 low- and middle...

Background: Despite decades of family planning (FP) programme successes in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), women still face an unmet need for contraceptives, as well as inequalities in coverage. Including elements of service readiness in FP intervention coverage measures will better inform...

Background: Most child deaths can be averted through prompt and appropriate treatment of child illnesses such as pneumonia, diarrhoea, and malaria. However, research has suggested that increases in care seeking do not necessarily mean that quality care is being received. We assessed the service read...

Background Large-for-gestational-age (LGA) and macrosomic newborns are at increased risk of adverse perinatal outcomes, including death, yet the burden of neonatal mortality associated with these conditions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), where ongoing nutritional and epidemiological tr...
