Continuous growth reference from 24thweek of gestation to 24 months by gender

Abstract: Background: Growth charts and child growth assessment have become prime global instruments in child health practice over the 30 years. An updated, continuous growth standard that bridges size at birth values with postnatal growth values can improve child growth screening and monitoring.

“…The growth data were converted to standard deviations (SD) from the mean, using two different growth charts for growth around birth and postnatal growth. 24,25 Intra-uterine growth retardation was defined as weight for gestational age more than 1.3 SD (10th centile) under the mean, postnatal growth retardation as height for age more than 2 SD under the mean, and microcephaly as head circumference for age more than 3 SD under the mean. [26][27][28] Informed consent to perform molecular investigations and to publish the medical data and photographs of the patients was obtained.…”

“…Standard deviation score (SDS) for birth weight (BW, g), birth length (BL, cm) and occipitofrontal circumference (OFC, cm) calculated according to Swedish growth reference for patients older than gestational age (GA) 24 weeks and according to German growth reference for those younger than GA 24 weeks. 21,22 ALG9-CDG E Tham et al nucleotides in exon 11 (corresponding to protein isoforms a/c, NP_079016.2 and NP_001071159.1, respectively). The PCR products were 106 bp in size in all three affected fetuses, whereas heterozygous parents showed fragments of 106 and 261 bp, respectively, indicating that 155 bp corresponding to exon 10 sequence were absent in the patients, that is, NM_024740.2:r.1118_1272del.…”

“…In Table 1, we present an overview of the patient demograph ics of the SGA case children and the AGA control children (11,12). The five SGA children who did not participate in the study had similar GA and birth weight (BW) values (median 30.1 wk, 930 g, respectively) to those of the 28 SGA children we included.…”
