dc.description.abstract | OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of preterm birth by categories of birth
weight, and to obtain an equation to correct the estimates.
METHODS: Systematic review of the Brazilian literature published from 1990
to 2012, to identify studies with primary collection of data on birth weight and
gestational age. Twelve studies were selected and contributed for tabulations of
preterm prevalence according to 100 g birth weight categories. These results
were combined using sex-specific fractional polynomial equations and the
resulting curves were compared with results from the Live Birth Information
System for the years 2000, 2005, 2010 and 2011.
RESULTS: For all birth weight categories, preterm prevalence estimates based
on primary studies had a higher prevalence than those of the the Live Birth
Information System. The prevalence reported by the Live Birth Information
System was of 7.2% in 2010, about 38.0% lower than the estimated prevalence
of 11.7% obtained with the correctional equation.
CONCLUSIONS: Information reported by the Live Birth Information System
on preterm prevalence does not reflect the true magnitude of the problem in
Brazil, and should not be used without the correction factors proposed in the
present analyses. | |
