In those with birth weights over 2,500 gm, infection, especially of the lungs, was the common cause. These two major causes of death have decreased during the last 3 years of this study (1977-1979). Congenital malformations are also an important cause of death. © 1982 Oxford University Press.Mahidol UniversityBiochemistry, Genetics and Molecular BiologyDecision SciencesImmunology and MicrobiologyMathematicsMedicineArticleSCOPUS10.1093/tropej/28.6.267-a
