  1. Relative Risk (RR) for 28-day neonatal mortality comparing intervention to control groups by research site. RR with corresponding 95 % CIs and p-values were calculated from generalized linear models accounting for the cluster-level variance and adjusted for randomization strata. For Guatemala we excluded data from entire strata that included the cluster that could not participate due to security concerns
