abstract: 'In low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), the probability of dying in
|
||||
|
||||
childhood is strongly related to the socio-economic position of the
|
||||
|
||||
parents or household in which the child is born. This article reviews
|
||||
|
||||
the evidence on the magnitude of socio-economic inequalities in
|
||||
|
||||
childhood mortality within LMICs, discusses possible causes and
|
||||
|
||||
highlights entry points for intervention.
|
||||
|
||||
Evidence on socio-economic inequalities in childhood mortality in LMICs
|
||||
|
||||
is mostly based on data from household surveys and demographic
|
||||
|
||||
surveillance sites.
|
||||
|
||||
Childhood mortality is systematically and considerably higher among
|
||||
|
||||
lower socio-economic groups within countries. Also most proximate
|
||||
|
||||
mortality determinants, including malnutrition, exposure to infections,
|
||||
|
||||
maternal characteristics and health care use show worse levels among
|
||||
|
||||
more deprived groups. The magnitude of inequality varies between
|
||||
|
||||
countries and over time, suggesting its amenability to intervention.
|
||||
|
||||
Reducing inequalities in childhood mortality would substantially
|
||||
|
||||
contribute to improving population health and reaching the Millennium
|
||||
|
||||
Development Goals (MDGs).
|
||||
|
||||
The contribution of specific determinants, including national policies,
|
||||
|
||||
to childhood mortality inequalities remains uncertain. What works to
|
||||
|
||||
reduce these inequalities, in particular whether policies should be
|
||||
|
||||
universal or targeted to the poor, is much debated.
|
||||
|
||||
The increasing political attention for addressing health inequalities
|
||||
|
||||
needs to be accompanied by more evidence on the contribution of specific
|
||||
|
||||
determinants, and on ways to ensure that interventions reach lower
|
||||
|
||||
socio-economic groups.'
