The placental pathology of small-for-gestational age infants

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1975
There 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),

Handicap in the preterm small-for-gestational age infant.

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1980
A prospective study of growth and development during the first two years of life was performed on 71 preterm SGA infants. All infants were referred from outlying hospitals during 1974 and 1975. Most children continued to show growth retardation: 24 of 71 were less than third percentile for weight and height at two years.

Plasma Leptin Levels of Large for Gestational Age and Small for Gestational Age Infants

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1999
The 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 ...

Macromolecular absorption in small‐for‐gestational‐age infants

Acta Paediatrica, 1992
Using 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 ...
