A retrospective survey was undertaken of all deaths in children under 5 in the borough of Wolverhampton over the years 1976-82. Cause of death was classified in terms of preventability and possibly preventable deaths studied in more detail. Birth weight in the study group was significantly lower than that of the local population; there was no difference in ethnic origin, but there were significantly more Asian girls than Asian boys. The association between potentially preventable death and various socioeconomic indicators in the electoral wards in the borough was investigated. A significant association was found between mortality and overcrowding, lack of household amenities, unemployment, lack of car ownership, and households where the head was born in the new Commonwealth or Pakistan.
对1976年至1982年间伍尔弗汉普顿市辖区内所有5岁以下儿童的死亡情况进行了回顾性调查。根据可预防性对死因进行了分类,并对可能可预防的死亡进行了更详细的研究。研究组的出生体重显著低于当地人口;种族出身没有差异,但亚洲女孩比亚洲男孩多得多。对该辖区选区潜在可预防死亡与各种社会经济指标之间的关联进行了调查。发现死亡率与过度拥挤、缺乏家庭设施、失业、没有汽车以及户主出生在新英联邦国家或巴基斯坦的家庭之间存在显著关联。
