2. The simultaneous effects of maternal age and birth order on the
secondary sex ratio have been examined using data on about 59
million births which occurred in Japan during the period from 1947 to
1978 except 1950. Non-linear negative association between the sex
ratio and birth order was observed
3. The secondary sex ratio in Japan has been increasing during
the period of 1900 through 1978. The change in birth order
distribution can explain only a part of the increase in the
sex ratio. The decrease in stillbirth rate was not only
negatively correlated with the increase in the sex ratio at
birth but also with that in fatal deaths. Therefore, it seems
that there are some unexplainable factors associated with
the increase in the secondary sex ratio other than the
decrease in the stillbirth rate. The present results strongly
suggest that the true cause of the secular trend in the
secondary sex ratio in Japan will be found in the very early
stage of pregnancy or at the time of conception.
4. The value for Mortality rate, under-5 (per 1,000 live births) in
Japan was 2.90 as of 2013. As the graph below shows, over the
past 53 years this indicator reached a maximum value of 39.70 in
1960 and a minimum value of 2.90 in 2013.
5. Under-five mortality rate is the probability per 1,000 that a
newborn baby will die before reaching age five, if subject to age-
specific mortality rates of the specified year.

Therefore there may be some cases that the data are not
consistent with the data before 2015.
6. Sex ratio is used to describe the number of females per 1000 of males.
Sex ratio is a valuable source for finding the population of women in
India and what is the ratio of women to that of men in India. In the
Population Census of 2011 it was revealed that the population ratio in
India 2011 is 940 females per 1000 of males.
7. The Sex Ratio 2011 shows an upward trend from the census 2001
data. Census 2001 revealed that there were 933 females to that of
1000 males. Since decades India has seen a decrease in the sex ratio
2011, but since the last two of the decades there has been in slight
increase in the sex ratio. Since the last five decades the sex ratio has
been moving around 930 of females to that of 1000 of males.Since

8. India has realized impressive gains in child survival over the
last two decades. However, at the current pace, the country is
unlikely to achieve the Millennium Development Goal (MDG) 4
-which aims to reduce Under-Five Mortality (U5MR) by two
thirds between 1990 and 2015- unless the related socio-
economic; maternal and demographic .
9. There has been a consistent decline in Infant Mortality Rate
(IMR) and Under-Five Mortality Rate (U5MR) in India. The
rate of decline in current decade is higher than in the previous.
However, based on robust projections, at the current rate of
decline, India is unlikely to meet the targets for Millennium
Development Goal (MDG)-4, which aims to reduce by two
thirds between 1990 and 2015, the under-five mortality rate. -

10. In a study around 2002, the natural sex ratio at birth was estimated
to be close to 1.06 males/female.In most populations, adult males tend
to have higher death rates than adult females of the same to 0.72 in
the USA, from 1.06 to 0.91 in mainland and from 1.07 to 1.02 in
India.
11. Even after allowing for causes specific to females such as death in
childbirth) both due to natural causes such as heart attacks and strokes,
which account for by far the majority of deaths and also to violent
causes, such as homicide and warfare (for example, in the USA as of
2006, an adult non-elderly male is 3 to 6 times more likely to become a
victim of a homicide and 2.5 to 3.5 times more likely to die in an
accident than a female of the same age), resulting in higher life
expectancy of females. Consequently, the sex ratio tends to reduce as
age increases, and among the elderly there is usually an excess of
females. For example, the male to female ratio falls from 1.05 for the
group aged 15 to 65 to 0.70 for the group over 65 in Germany , from
1.00
12. 8.15 deaths/1,000 population (2014 est.)
country comparison to the world: 94
The united state is third in mortality rate. The birth rate
is more than the mortality rate in USA. This is why the
USA has more population
13. Death rate: 8.15 deaths/1,000 population (2014 est.)
Definition: This entry gives the average annual number of deaths
during a year per 1,000 population at midyear; also known as crude
death rate. The death rate, while only a rough indicator of the
mortality situation in a country, accurately indicates the current
mortality impact on population growth. This indicator is significantly
affected by age distribution, and most countries will eventually show
a rise in the overall death rate, in spite of continued decline in
mortality at all ages, as declining fertility results in an aging
population.

14. Sex ratio:
at birth: 1.04 male(s)/female
0-14 years: 1.03 male(s)/female
15-24 years: 0.88 male(s)/female
25-54 years: 0.9 male(s)/female
55-64 years: 0.95 male(s)/female
65 years and over: 0.96 male(s)/female
total population: 0.95 male(s)/female (2014 est.)
15. This entry includes the number of males for each female in five age
groups - at birth, under 15 years, 15-64 years, 65 years and over,
and for the total population. Sex ratio at birth has recently
emerged as an indicator of certain kinds of sex discrimination in
some countries. For instance, high sex ratios at birth in some
Asian countries are now attributed to sex-selective abortion and
infanticide due to a strong preference for sons. This will affect
future marriage patterns and fertility patterns. Eventually, it
could cause unrest among young adult males who are unable to
find partners.
16. The value for Mortality rate, under-5 (per 1,000 live
births) in Bangladesh was 41.10 as of 2013. As the graph
below shows, over the past 53 years this indicator reached
a maximum value of 263.80 in 1960 and a minimum value
of 41.10 in 2013.
17. Under-five mortality rate is the probability per 1,000 that a newborn
baby will die before reaching age five, if subject to age-specific
mortality rates of the specified year.
