Du Q et al. – The researcher found that the maternal mortality ratio of Xinjiang was very high; almost half of the participants delivered at home without clean delivery, and nearly one–fifth of the participants had not received any medical treatment. Eighty–seven percent of maternal deaths were among ethnic minority groups. In multiethnic areas in Xinjiang, social–culture factors, lack of health resources, and low health services utilization were related to high maternal mortality.
