a

QL, lower quartile; Qu, upper quartile; N/A, not applicable.

b

Gravidity refers to the number of pregnancies, including current and past pregnancies, no matter whether the pregnancies were interrupted or resulted in a live birth.

c

Parity refers to the number of deliveries of a fetus at or after 24th gestational weeks, regardless of live birth or stillbirth. Nullipara indicates that a woman has no birth history, and multipara means a woman had more than one birth.

d

No. (%).

e

The number of pregnancies in antenatal care (766 194) is the denominator.

f

The number of pregnancies in maternal delivery care (758 237) is the denominator.

g

The number of newborns in neonatal delivery care (765 746) is the denominator.
