- Data analysis indicated that out of 847,755 births, there were 23,420 birth defects, revealing significant differences in total, perinatal, and livebirth prevalence rates.
- The total prevalence rate was identified as 27.63‰, while perinatal and livebirth prevalence rates were 17.06‰ and 13.52‰ respectively, with significant underestimations of these rates compared to total prevalence.
To describe the fetal death rate of birth defects (including a broad range of specific defects) and to explore the relationship between fetal deaths from birth defects and a broad range of demographic characteristics.
