Body composition in appropriate and in small for gestational age infants
Acta Paediatrica, International Journal of Paediatrics, 1997The body composition of 70 appropriate for gestational age newborn infants whose gestational age ranged from 32 to 41 weeks was determined by dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry during the first 48 h of life. The evolution of the bone mineral content, fat and lean mass was well correlated with gestational age (r= 0.66, r= 0.66 and r= 0.82.

Polycythemia in small for gestational age infants
The Journal of Pediatrics, 1969Neonatal polycythemia and related disorders were studied in 23 full-term infants small for gestational age (SGA), 23 full-term (F-AGA), and 18 preterm infants of birth weights appropriate for gestational age (P-AGA). SGA infants had significantly higher hemoglobin, hematocrit, erythrocyte count, and fetal hemoglobin concentration values than other ...

The placental pathology of small-for-gestational age infants
American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1975There is a lack of placental studies of newborn infants who are small for gestational age (SGA). In a gross and light micorscopy evaluation of 63 referred placentas associated with singleton SGA infants, abnormalities were found in 58. In many instances these were considered of causal significance. Abnormalities included ischemic lesions (43 per cent),

Risk factors for small for gestational age infants
Best Practice & Research Clinical Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2009There are many established risk factors for babies who are small for gestational age (SGA) by population birth weight centiles (usually defined as

Aetiology and classification of small for gestational age infants
Journal of Paediatrics and Child Health, 1997Objective: To determine important aetiological factors in small gestational age (SGA) infants and the effectiveness of anthropometric indexes in identifying patterns of growth retardation. Methodology: Eighty‐four SGA infants and 81 controls were enrolled.

Macromolecular absorption in small‐for‐gestational‐age infants
Acta Paediatrica, 1992Using human α‐lactalbumin as a marker protein, macromolecular absorption was studied in 40 preterm infants, appropriate for gestational age (AGA), in 12 AGA term infants and in 18 preterm infants, small for gestational age (SGA). The absorption of α‐lactalbumin was measured as concentration in serum after a human milk feed and expressed as μg α ...

Plasma Leptin Levels of Large for Gestational Age and Small for Gestational Age Infants
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1999The hormone leptin produced in the adipose tissue is involved in the regulation of body weight. This study investigates whether plasma leptin levels are related to an infant's birthweight, and whether the levels change with feeding. We measured plasma leptin levels from infants who were large for gestational age (n= 21), small for gestational age (n ...

Angiotensinogen gene variants and small‐for‐gestational‐age infants
BJOG: An International Journal of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, 2006In 2003, the angiotensinogen (AGT) gene was found to be associated with infants small for gestational age (SGA). The present study of 107 pregnancies affected by SGA infants and 101 normal pregnancies was designed to further investigate this association.

Placental size of small-for-gestational-age infants at term
Early Human Development, 1982Placental size was compared between appropriate-for-gestational age (AGA) and small-for gestational age (SGA) infants born at term. Placental weight, chorionic plate area and villous surface area were significantly reduced in the SGA infants. Although the ratio of placental weight to birth was similar in the AGA and SGA infants, the latter had ...
