- Abstract
Several studies have examined the phenomenon of "death clustering," in which two or more children born to the same mother or from the same family die at an early age. Therefore, a scientific examination of the results is essential to understand how the survival status of the older siblings affects the survival of the younger siblings. By using meta-analysis, this study aims to provide a quantitative synthesis of the results of studies on "child death clustering" in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
