OBJECTIVES
This article aims to determine whether different patterns of mortality occurred among children born during the day and the night respectively, between 1830 and 1929.
METHODS
The data include the time of birth and death of 9814 individuals from 10 villages in rural Spain between 1830 and 1929, within a context of natural births at home with little medical support. These data were subjected to a comparative analysis relating to the time of birth and the age at death.
RESULTS
Neonatal, infant, and child mortality was higher for children born during daytime. The day-to-night mortality pattern diverged until children were at least 5 years old.
CONCLUSIONS
The results confirm that the mortality patterns differed according to the time of birth. Possibly some of these children experienced longer or problematic deliveries that, in the absence of good medical assistance, had health consequences during the following days and years of life.
目的
本文旨在确定 1830 年至 1929 年间，分别在白天和夜间出生的儿童的死亡率是否存在不同模式。
方法
该数据包括 1830 年至 1929 年期间西班牙农村 10 个村庄内 9814 名个体的出生和死亡时间，这些数据均为在家中自然分娩且几乎没有医疗支持的情况下获得。对这些数据进行了出生时间与死亡年龄相关的比较分析。
结果
白天出生的新生儿、婴儿和儿童的死亡率更高。从白天到夜间的死亡率模式差异一直持续到儿童至少 5 岁。
结论
研究结果证实，死亡率模式确实因出生时间而异。可能这些儿童中的一些经历了更长或更困难的分娩过程，在缺乏良好医疗援助的情况下，在随后的几天和几年的生命中会产生健康后果。
