May 28, 2011 · Interpretation: Our generic reference for fetal-weight and birthweight percentiles can be easily adapted to local populations. It has a better ability to predict adverse perinatal outcomes than has the non-customised fetal-weight reference, and is simpler to use than the individualised reference without loss of predictive ability.

Jun 1, 2012 · This global reference was obtained using the following; mean birth weight and standard deviation at 40 weeks' gestation in the populations studied, the concept of growth potential and of...
May 28, 2011 · We used the fetal-weight reference developed by Hadlock and colleagues and the notion of proportionality proposed by Gardosi and colleagues and made the weight reference easily adjustable according to the mean birthweight at 40 weeks of gestation for any local population.

May 28, 2011 · TLDR. Although common and country-specific birthweight/EFW references identified slightly different proportions of SGA infants, the risk of the composite outcome was comparable and small for gestational age is associated with higher mortality and morbidity in infants born <29 weeks' gestationalAge.

May 1, 2011 · Findings. OR of adverse outcomes for infants small for gestational age versus those not small for gestational age was 1·59 (95% CI 1·53-1·66) for the non-customised fetal-weight reference compared with 2·87 (2·73-3·01) for our country-specific reference, and 2·84 (2·71-2·99) for the fully individualised reference.
