The past 15 years have seen a substantial drop in the rate of stillbirths
过去十五年间，死产婴儿比率有实质性的下降


大幅（度）下降
substantial effect＝＝实质性效果

Despite these gaps, the widest differences are between rich and poor countries
尽管有这些差异，但是最大的差异还是富国和穷国间的差异。

尽管有这些差异==这句似乎有点笼统哈
these gaps从上文的
“The global drop in stillbirths also masks a wide variation within countries. A mother in central India is more than three times as likely to have a stillbirth as is a mother in India’s southern state of Kerala. In Britain, black women are twice as likely as white ones to have a baby die during labour.”可以看出，是说同一个国家不同地区之间的差异，以及不同民族（种族）之间的差异；然后转一下，虽然同一个国家的不同地区以及不同民族之间存在死胎率差异，但是最大的差异还是存在于贫国和富国之间

In the crowded field of global health, ailments must beg for attention.
全球健康这片拥挤不堪的田野里，小病小恙很难得到关注

The global drop in stillbirths also masks a wide variation within countries.
全球死产数的下降还掩盖了国家之间巨大的差异。

不是国家之间，而是同一个国家，下文有接续＝＝不同地区，不同民族之间存在差异

The average yearly decline of stillbirths over this period was 1.1%, slower than the decline for child or maternal mortality.
