Ultrasonic measurements of biparietal diameter (BPD) between the 12th week of menstrual age (MA) and delivery were taken longitudinally on a group of 98 Cape Coloured employees of Groote Schuur Hospital. The socio-economic situation of subjects was above average for the community; this was reflected in their larger body size and the increased birth weight of observed fetuses. A growth chart showing MA as a function of BPD has been constructed for clinical use. This chart can be regarded as representing a 'norm' closer to the ideal than to the average in the population.
对格罗特·舒尔医院的98名开普有色人种员工进行了纵向超声测量，测量其月经龄（MA）第12周与分娩之间的双顶径（BPD）。研究对象的社会经济状况高于社区平均水平；这反映在他们较大的体型以及所观察胎儿出生体重的增加上。已构建了一张显示MA作为BPD函数的生长图表以供临床使用。该图表可被视为代表了一种比人群平均水平更接近理想状态的“标准”。
