During the period of 2000–2004, the four leading causes of neonatal mortality were (a) neonatal asphyxia and trauma; (b) pre-term delivery, low birth weight and hypothermia; (c) severe infection; and (d) congenital birth defects. Collectively, these four causes accounted for 89 per cent of all neonatal deaths nationally and thus over 50 per cent of under-five deaths.
Note: Figure 3.11 uses a 1993 classification by the former Ministry of Health whereby all counties and districts in China are categorized as being within large cities or small and medium cities, or are rural areas of four types (I, II, III and IV). The classification used a development index that included the most recent values for indicators such as industrialization, education, illiteracy, infant mortality rate, GDP per capita and population demographics.
