Definition

Rate (age, sex ratio) Context (population size studied, location, date data taken, end-point measured) Definition of end-point Reference
Media:EUROCAT_neural_tube_birth_defects.gif Total reported prevalence (number and rate per 10 000 births) of neural tube defects including livebirths, stillbirths and induced abortions in 14 EUROCAT registries 1980-1986 [1]
Tables can be created based on the surveillance data collected from 1980 to 2007 by 45 EUROCAT Registries, where you select the registries, years, and congenital anomalies. See hyperlink.
See attached word document for cases and prevalence (per 10,000 births) for All Full Member Registries From 2000 – 2007.

Annual birth coverage is 23.4% of births of the EU-15 countries, 35.0% of the EU-NMS countries and 25.6% of EU-27.
Total prevalence of major congenital anomalies of 23.8 per 1,000 births for 2000-2004.
Live birth prevalence (per 1,000 births) of:
congenital heart disease = 6.1
Down Syndrome = 2.2
Cleft palate and lip = 1.3
Gastroschisis = 0.2
Hypospadias = 1.3
