Gestational age distribution (1a) and gestational age-specific perinatal mortality (1b and 1c) rates, Canada. Gestational age distribution of twin live births in Canada 1985–88 versus 1996–98 (Figure 1a), conventional calculation of gestational age-specific perinatal mortality rates per 1,000 total births among singletons and twins, Canada 1991–97 (Figure 1b), and gestational age-specific rates of revealed small-for-gestation age (SGA, primary Y-axis) and perinatal death (secondary Y-axis) per 1,000 fetuses at risk among singletons and twins, Canada 1991–97 (Figure 1c).
