The mortality risk is presented as a percentage (number of deaths over the number of animals recorded in this age group over the defined study period), with the number of mortalities included in brackets. Cumulative mortality incidence may give a total of just under or just over 100% due to rounding. This table shows the variation between studies in age groups selected for study.
a Deaths occurring between birth and 48 hours were considered as stillbirths by the authors and are not included in the study.
