Size at birth and neonatal and postneonatal mortality
Acta Paediatrica, 2002 Birthweight is a crude indicator of size at birth. Some neonatologists and obstetricians have advocated the use of ponderal index and birthlength to characterize size at birth. This paper examines the associations between various size‐at‐birth indicators and neonatal and postneonatal mortality, with an emphasis on ponderal index and birthlength.

ABSTRACT. Anthropometric standards for weight, length and head circumference of Icelandic infants at birth are presented. The material concerning weight and crown‐heel length consisted of 43364 newborns, the total number of infants born in 1972‐1981. The standards for head circumference were based on 28978 infants born in 1975‐1981.

Size at birth is strongly related to a number of maternal factors including parity, length of gestation, mother's adult size, and mother's own birth weight (1). The importance of genetic factors has come from studies of monozygous and dizygous twins, where estimates of heritability of birth weight range from 30 to 70% (2,3). Ounsted et al. (4), however,

A Methodology for Evaluating Size at Birth
Acta Paediatrica, 1985ABSTRACT. Data from the Swedish Medical Birth Registration, 1977‐78, were utilized to develop methods of calculating reference standards for evaluating size at birth. Using the clinical information available, a ‘healthy’ sub‐group was extracted. The individual distributions of birthweight (BW), birth length (BL) and birth headcircumference (BHc) at ...

The most common measure of entry used in studies attempting to empirically identify the determinants of entry has been the change in the number of firms in an industry over a given period.' This measure suffers from three significant deficiencies which, although widely acknowledged, have not all been overcome in any one study.

Social Biology, 1991
Ahlburg (1983, 1986) tested a simple version of Easterlin's relative-cohort-size model of fertility on the basis of U.S. and Canadian post-war data. His conclusion was that the Easterlin model fits the data very well and can therefore be used for calculating forecasts. However, the model he estimated is oversimplified.

BIRTH ORDER, FAMILY SIZE, AND INTELLIGENCE
Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1974The relation of birth order and family size to intellectual performance, as measured by the Raven Progressive Matrices, was examined among nearly all of 400,000 19-year-old males born in the Netherlands in 1944 through 1947. It was found that birth order and family size had independent effects on intellectual performance.

Symphysis–fundal height and size at birth
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2003Symphysis–fundal (SF) height prepregnancy weight weight at delivery height weight gain body mass index (BMI) and mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC) measurements have been associated with birth size. However the influence of some of these measurements on birth weight seems to be more important in populations with moderate-to-severe malnutrition.
