Global pregnancy register - call for contributions
WHO/TDR are issuing two calls for contributions to the WHO systematic review of information on maternal outcomes, and prevalence of birth defects in Asia, Africa & Latin- America.
- Studies, publications or reports that monitored pregnant women in Africa, Asia, or Latin America, and assessed the newborn at birth.
- Individual patient data from research in Africa, Asia or Latin America, where pregnant women were prospectively followed up to term, and where the newborn has undergone a systematic physical examination.
Please contact Dr Melba Gomes, TDR, at gomesm@who.int, with either “Systematic review of pregnancy outcomes -reports” or “Systematic review of pregnancy outcomes -Individual Patient Data” in the subject line of the message if you have information to contribute.
Reprints of relevant publications/reports mail also be mailed to:
