Global trends in incidence and death of neonatal disorders and its specific causes in 204 countries/territories during 1990-2019.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Neonatal disorders (ND) are a significant global health issue. This article aimed to track the global trends of neonatal disorders in 204 countries/territories from 1990 to 2019.

Methods

Data was explored from the Global Burden of Disease study 2019. Estimated annual percentage change (EAPC) and age-standardized rate (ASR) were calculated to quantify the trends of neonatal disorders and their specific causes, mainly included neonatal preterm birth (NPB), neonatal encephalopathy due to birth asphyxia and trauma (NE), neonatal sepsis and other neonatal infections (NS), and hemolytic disease and other neonatal jaundice (HD).

Results

In 2019, there were 23,532.23 × 10³ incident cases of ND, and caused 1882.44 × 10³ death worldwide. During
