Swimmers can be exposed to high levels of trihalomethanes, byproducts of chlorination disinfection. There are no published studies on the relation between swimming and birth weight. We explored this relation in a large birth cohort, the Avon (England) Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC), in 1991-1992.Information on the amount of ...

Hyperphenylalaninemia and birth weight
Annales de Génétique, 2002Hyperphenylalaninemias (HPAs) are due to autosomal recessive inherited deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase and include three different biochemical and clinical phenotypes: classic phenylketonuria, mild phenylketonuria and persistent HPA. Recently the relationship between birth weight and HPA has been investigated.

Weight to Place on Birth Weight
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1983ABSTRACT Most of our knowledge about the correlates of birth weight and perinatal morbidity derives from studies done more than a decade ago. Thus, the effort by Hackman et al to identify previously unrecognized predictors of birth weight and unfavorable pregnancy outcome, reported in this issue of The Journal (p 2016), deserves attention.

Birth weight in children with birth defects
Birth Defects Research Part A: Clinical and Molecular Teratology, 2011Birth defects (BDs) are a serious public health problem in Mexico. The objective of this paper was to identify the frequency of newborns (NBs) that are born small for gestational age with a birth defect.A cross-sectional study of NBs from hospitals part of the Mexican Institute of Social Security in Chihuahua, Mexico, was conducted.

Independent effect of maternal birth weight on infant birth weight
jpme, 1996The relationship between the birth weights of the mother and her infant was evaluated in a sample of 106 women consecutively delivered of a single live birth. Women were included in the study if their birth weight was available in hospital files or from another reliable source. Women that were themselves a twin or had diseases complicated the course of

Epidemiology, 2008
Birth weight is associated not just with infant morbidity and mortality, but with outcomes occurring much later in life, including adult mortality, as reported by a paper by Baker and colleagues in this issue of Epidemiology. While these associations are tantalizing per se, the truly interesting question concerns the mechanisms that underlie these ...

Pediatrics, 1963
SINCE THE First World Health Assembly in 1948, the international definition of prematurity based on birth weight (≤ 2500 gm) has been used widely and successfully for purposes of vital statistics concerning newborn infants. This definition is objective and subject to standardization in contrast to a classification based on estimates of gestational age ...

The effect of altitude on birth weight was measured with data in U.S. natality records from 1978 to 1981 after correlation with the mean altitude of the mother's resident county. For comparison of the low birth weight (LBW) rate at different altitudes, certain socioeconomic risk factors known to affect birth weight were controlled by the selection of ...

The determinants of birth weight
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1982Presented are the results of multivariate regression analysis of the variations in birth weight of term babies associated with the socioeconomic, physical, and medical factors recorded in obstetric case notes at a London teaching hospital. The results show that the sex of the baby, parity, maternal smoking during the pregnancy, maternal height, weight,

Prepregnancy weight, weight gain, and birth weight
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1986The effect of maternal weight gain on birth weight in 2946 live births with delivery after 37 weeks' gestation was studied at Moffitt Hospital, University of California (San Francisco), between September, 1980, and December, 1983. The sample was stratified into four categories according to prepregnancy weight for height with use of a body mass index ...
