Incidence of congenital heart disease: I. Postnatal incidence
Abstract
The incidence of congenital heart disease (CHD) in the Western industrialized world has varied from a low value of about 3 to 5 per 1000 live births to about 12 per 1000 live births. Most of the lower incidence figures were obtained before there were sufficiently well trained pediatric cardiologists and before the success of cardiac surgery put a premium on early and correct diagnosis of CHD. The advent of echocardiography with Doppler color flow measurements has made it possible to diagnose lesions that are asymptomatic, minor, and even without murmurs. Given these differences, there does not appear to have been a significant increase in the incidence of CHD over the last 20-30 years. The incidence of CHD in underdeveloped countries is not known, but the distribution of different lesions is fairly similar to those in developed countries except perhaps for fewer with aortic stenosis and coarctation of the aorta.

The predominance of ventricular septal defect is similar to the findings in spontaneously conceived pregnancies.
“Ventricular septal defect was the predominant cardiac anomaly (5 of 8 newborns with cardiac anomalies), similar to the findings in spontaneously conceived pregnancies (16,17).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
