Clearly the more premature an infant is when he is born, the greater likelihood of complications. In fact, according to the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services National Center for Health Statistics, complications stemming from short gestation and low birth weight are the second leading causes of infant mortality in the United States.

In the United States, advanced technologies and procedures have made it more practical in recent years for medical professionals to attempt to save severely premature infants. Such attempts do not always succeed, adding to the rate of infant mortality.] Resuscitation is more likely to be attempted on extremely premature babies born in the United States than in many other countries, ... The extremely premature babies on whom resuscitation is unsuccessful are then counted as infant deaths, whereas they are counted as fetal deaths when resuscitation has not been attempted.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/38393</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Leaders of the political blocs reached an agreement on the constitution draft that guarantees the rights of all Iraqi people ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36209]]></link><description><![CDATA[Leaders of the political blocs reached an agreement on the constitution draft that guarantees the rights of all Iraqi people in the referendum.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/36209</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Many fine things can be done in a day if you don't always make that day tomorrow ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/462]]></link><description><![CDATA[Many fine things can be done in a day if you don't always make that day tomorrow]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/462</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[All things journey: sun and moon, Morning, noon, and afternoon,  Night and all her stars;   'Twixt the ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48359]]></link><description><![CDATA[All things journey: sun and moon, Morning, noon, and afternoon,  Night and all her stars;   'Twixt the east and western bars    Round they journey,     Come and go!      We go with them!]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48359</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I'll put a spoke among your wheels. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48621]]></link><description><![CDATA[I'll put a spoke among your wheels.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/48621</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Wan night, the shadow goer, came stepping in. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44513]]></link><description><![CDATA[Wan night, the shadow goer, came stepping in.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/44513</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[A competitive world offers two possibilities.
