English term or phrase: former cautious estimates turn out largely
The average represented by global rates and the grouping of rates by continent absorbs the differentials found between sub-regions, yet these distinctions are important. Modest reductions in unsafe abortion rates were found in 2008 as compared to 200330 in most sub-regions (Figure 5). The upward changes in rates, notably for Middle Africa, Western Asia and Central America, were due to better coverage and more reliable information in 2008 than in 2003. Limitations in the 2003 data were pointed out for these regions when they were published in 2007; former cautious estimates turn out largely to have been underestimates. The highest rates for any subregion in 2008 were in Eastern and Middle Africa at 36 per 1,000 women 15–44.
