"The purpose of this study is to shed light on infant mortality rates in Iraq, including how they differ from place to place, and to identify the variables behind such differences. It also aims at showing the causes of change in the trend since 1991 when the allied forces launched a war against the country and imposed an economic embargo on it....Infant mortality rates can be divided into two main categories: a higher category near the eastern border, probably, owing in part to the Iran-Iraq war, and a lower category in the western part of the country (with the exception of An Najaf) and the extreme north."
本研究的目的是阐明伊拉克的婴儿死亡率情况,包括各地的差异以及找出造成这些差异的变量。研究还旨在揭示自1991年盟军对伊拉克发动战争并实施经济制裁以来死亡率趋势变化的原因……婴儿死亡率可分为两大类:靠近东部边境的地区较高,这可能部分归因于两伊战争;而在该国西部(除纳杰夫外)和最北部地区较低。
