To evaluate sex-based disparities in clinical outcomes, specifically neonatal mortality and severe morbidity.
Assessed clinical outcomes and morbidity rates stratified by infant biological sex.
Male infants showed significant disadvantages in clinical outcomes compared to female infants.
Rates of severe neonatal morbidity and mortality were notably higher among male newborns.

Implication

Comparative study demonstrates increased neonatal mortality and severe morbidity in male infants, highlighting biological vulnerabilities linked to infant sex.

Abstract

Our study demonstrates significant disparities in clinical outcomes by infant sex with males at a disadvantage to female infants.
