“…A study on the medium-term effects of the crisis in Greece reported a rise in infant mortality [ 12 ], and another found that infant mortality was associated with the residence and Human Development Index [ 13 ]. A more recent study on infant mortality trends in European countries pointed out a change in the slope of IMR of affected countries after 2008, with a reverse in downwards trends in Ireland and Greece and a significant slowdown in Spain, Portugal, and Hungary [ 17 ]. In the present study, which is based on the last available European data, we found significant changes in the AAPC of IMR in most of the affected countries, which agree with the above findings.…”

“…Subsequent studies observed significant adverse effects on both perinatal parameters [ 9 , 10 ] and infant mortality [ 12 , 13 ], although they did not provide an estimation of the magnitude of that impact. Data from other affected European countries also found elevated low birth weight rates in the post-crisis period [ 14 , 15 ], but the findings of the impact on infant mortality remained controversial [ 15 , 16 , 17 ].…”

(1) Background: To explore the effects of the 2008 economic crisis on maternal, perinatal and infant mortality in Greece and the socio-economic determinants associated with them; (2) Methods: The annual rates of stillbirth (SBR), perinatal mortality (PMR), infant mortality (IMR), neonatal mortality (NNMR), post-neonatal mortality (PNMR), low birth weight (LBW), and maternal mortality (MMR) were calculated for the years 2000–2016. Average Annual Percent Changes (AAPC) were calculated by the period before and after 2008. The expected rates of 2009–2016 and the observed-to-expected rate ratios (RR) were calculated. Correlation and multiple linear regression analyses were used to test the impact of socio-economic variables on health outcomes; (3) Results: A reverse in downwards trends of PNM, IMR, and NNMR is observed since 2009. All observed values of 2009–2016 were found significantly higher than the expected ones by 12–34%. All indicators except SBR were found negatively correlated with GDP and DHI. A positive correlation was found between IMR, NNMR, and LBW and long-term unemployment, and no association with public health expenditure; (4) Conclusions: Economic crisis was associated with remarkable adverse effects on perinatal outcomes and infant mortality, mainly determined by long-term unemployment and income reduction. The findings stress a need for interventions to protect maternity and child health during crises.

“…La reducción del componente posneonatal ha permitido alcanzar los niveles actuales; no obstante, ha cobrado particular interés la mortalidad neonatal, principal contribuyente del indicador. 21 Este componente está determinado por diferentes factores de carácter biológico, asistencial y socioeconómico. De la misma manera, son relevantes los factores maternos asociados a la mortalidad neonatal, como la edad, la baja escolaridad y el período intergenésico corto.…”

“…By the interpretation of temporal variations in the four parameters, it is concluded that the majority of the examined European countries generally present a "positive" tendency in infant mortality, with either constantly low or continuously decreasing levels over time. By analyzing data on deaths of children aged less than one year between 1994 and 2015, Onambele et al [35] also found that infant mortality has declined steadily in the EU and its member states in the past decades. Demographically, this is reflected in an increase in human life expectancy.…”

Research efforts focusing on better understanding and capture of mortality progression over the time are considered to be of significant interest in the field of demography. On a demographic basis, mortality can be expressed by different physical parameters. The main objective of this study is the assessment and mapping of four such parameters at the European scale, during the time period 1993–2013. Infant mortality (parameter θ), population aging (parameter ξ), and individual and population mortality due to unexpected exogenous factors/events (parameter κ and λ, respectively) are represented from these parameters. Given that their estimation is based on demographics by age and cause of death, and in order to be examined and visualized by gender, time-specific mortality and population demographic data with respect to gender, age, and cause of death was used. The resulting maps present the spatial patterns of the estimated parameters as well as their variations over the examined period for both male and female populations of 22 European countries in all.
