Evolution of neonatal mortality in the Matanza-Riachuelo River Basin between 2010 and 2019. A comparison of Argentina, the province of Buenos Aires, and the City of Buenos Aires, 2019.

Introduction. The neonatal mortality rate (NMR) is an indicator of socioeconomic, environmental, and health care conditions. The Matanza-Riachuelo River Basin (MRRB) is the most polluted in Argentina.

Infant mortality in the Matanza-Riachuelo River Basin. Comparison with the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires, the province of Buenos Aires, and Argentina (2010-2017).

Introduction: Infant mortality rate (IMR) is an indicator of health and socioeconomic, environmental, and health care conditions. Open dumps and sewage and industrial waste make the Matanza-Riachuelo River Basin the most polluted in Argentina.

Objective: To analyze infant mortality (IM) in the Matanza-Riachuelo River Basin compared to Argentina, the province of Buenos Aires (PBA), and the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA), and its evolution between 2010 and 2017.

[Omission of causes of maternal death in death certificates in Argentina: nationwide observational studyOmissão do registro de causas maternas de morte na Argentina: estudo observacional de alcance nacional].

Objective: To determine the magnitude and characteristics of the omission of causes of maternal death in death certificates in Argentina, and to re-estimate the maternal mortality ratio (MMR) for the year 2014.

Trend in infant mortality rate in Argentina within the framework of the Millennium Development Goals.

Introduction: Infant mortality rate (IMR) is an indicator of the health status of a population and of the quality of and access to health care services. In 2000, and within the framework of the Millennium Development Goals, Argentina committed to achieve by 2015 a reduction by two thirds of its 1990 infant mortality rate, and to identify and close inter-jurisdictional gaps. The objective of this article is to describe the trend in infant mortality rate in Argentina and interjurisdictional gaps, infant mortality magnitude and causes, in compliance with the Millennium Development Goals.

[Infant Mortality in Argentina: reducibility criteria, 3rd review].

The infant mortality rate is an indicator of quality of life, development, and quality and accessibility of health care. Improvements in science, technology and better access to health care have contributed to a major decrease in the infant mortality rate in Argentina. Since the 1980s, infant deaths have been classified based on the opportunities for reducibility yielded by scientific knowledge and available technologies, in order to obtain a basis for the monitoring and implementation of health policies.
