Previous estimates have highlighted a large global burden of stillbirths, with an absence reliable data from regions where most stillbirths occur. The Every Newborn Action Plan (ENAP) targets national stillbirth rates (SBRs) 12 or fewer per 1000 births by 2030. We estimate SBRs and numbers for 195 countries, including trends 2000 to 2015.

Childhood growth is of interest in medical research concerned with determinants and consequences variation from healthy development. Linear spline multilevel modelling a useful approach for deriving individual summary measures growth, which overcomes several data issues (co-linearity repeat measures, the requirement all individuals to be measured at same ages bias due missing data). Here, we outline application this methodology model trajectories length/height weight, drawing on examples...
