Popis: | In a cross-sectional study of 210 pregnancies resulting in above-average-sized term infants, ponderal and ponderal-like indices were found to be highly correlative with fetal overgrowth. Clinical usefulness, however, is limited because for each index, most large-for-gestational age infants remain unidentified. |
