  1. SLBR and STBR stand for stillbirth rates defined with respect for live births and total (still + live) births, respectively; and are for 2015 above. Data for STBR is from Blencowe et al. [5]. SLBR is derived by using the number stillborn from Blencowe et al. [5] and number of live births as calculated by using the neonatal mortality number and rate from World Development Indicators
