Developing nomogram to estimate birth weight from head circumference and mid-upper arm circumference.
BACKGROUND Despite the huge proportion of the babies in the developing world being born low birthweight, only about half of the newborns are weighed at birth as weighing scales often tend to be either non-available or defective. OBJECTIVE Designing a nomogram for estimation of birthweight from head circumference (HC) and mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC). METHOD Birthweight, HC and MUAC of...
متن کاملAssessment of Under Nutrition of Bangladeshi Adults Using Anthropometry: Can Body Mass Index Be Replaced by Mid-Upper-Arm-Circumference?
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Body-mass-index (BMI) is widely accepted as an indicator of nutritional status in adults. Mid-upper-arm-circumference (MUAC) is another anthropometric-measure used primarily among children. The present study attempted to evaluate the use of MUAC as a simpler alternative to BMI cut-off <18.5 to detect adult undernutrition, and thus to suggest a suitable cut-off value. ...
متن کاملplacental weight and its association with maternal and neonatal characteristics
placenta plays a vital role in normal fetal development and failure of placenta to gain weight and insufficiency of its function can result in fetal disorders. we performed this study to determine placental weight and factors associated with low weight placentas. in a longitudinal cross-sectional study, women with single pregnancy, and gestational age between 37-42 weeks were studied. the subje...
متن کاملLow Mid-Upper Arm Circumference, Calf Circumference, and Body Mass Index and Mortality in Older Persons
BACKGROUND Low body mass index is a general measure of thinness. However, its measurement can be cumbersome in older persons and other simple anthropometric measures may be more strongly associated with mortality. Therefore, associations of low mid-upper arm circumference, calf circumference, and body mass index with mortality were examined in older persons. METHODS Data of the Longitudinal A...
متن کاملNeonatal anthropometry and neonatal outcome.
Sao Paulo Med J 2003; 121(4):147-148. The use of anthropometric references for the evaluation of intrauterine growth has shown that children whose growth was restricted are more predisposed to metabolic disturbances during the neonatal period, alterations in somatic and neurocognitive development during infancy, increased morbidity and mortality in the first years of life and the appearance of ...
