Low Birth Weight and Congenital Heart Disease: Current Status and Future Directions
2021, Journal of PediatricsCongenital anomalies in Tunisia: Frequency and risk factors
2017, Journal of Gynecology Obstetrics and Human ReproductionCitation Excerpt :In our study, congenital malformations were not significantly associated with low birth weight. In literature, an association of low birth weight with increased risk of congenital malformations is very well- documented [23,25]. The comparison of fetuses with a low (fetal age < first trimester) and high term (fetal age > first trimester) has shown that the malformed fetuses with relatively high term are more numerous.
Maternal perchlorate exposure in pregnancy and altered birth outcomes
2017, Environmental ResearchCitation Excerpt :The long-term consequences of these associations are unknown. A number of previous studies have identified associations between increased birthweight overall and adult obesity, a well-known risk factor for several chronic adult diseases (Schellong et al., 2012), as well as overall increased morbidity and mortality (Van den Berg and Yerushalmy, 1966). Whether or not these findings are directly relevant to our results is currently unknown.
