Polycythemia in small for gestational age infants

The Journal of Pediatrics, 1969
Neonatal 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 ...

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 ...

Born small for gestational age: consequences for growth

Acta Paediatrica, 1996
A large number of studies have documented a strong correlation between size at birth and subsequent height, although the reported incidence of catch‐up growth and consequently the impact on final height has varied with time and between countries. These variations may be real, but could also be related to a number of methodological problems.

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),

[Fetus, small for gestational age].

Orvosi hetilap, 2014
A small for gestational age foetus is defined by the foetal weight below the 10th centile for the corresponding gestational age. However, the vast majority of these cases has no apparent underlying abnormality, while in other cases a serious causative pathological condition can be identified.

Small for Gestational Age Neonate

1991
Until 1961 all neonates with birth weights of 2500 g or less were considered to have been born prematurely. Only after this time did it become recognized that birth weight could be discordant with gestational age, and neonates were classified as appropriate (AGA), small (SGA), or large for gestational age (LGA).1 This chapter reviews some of the ...
