In this study of the umbilical cord lengths of 602 Nigerian infants delivered at term, the mean, median and modal measurements were 57.48, 57.71 and 68.00 cm, respectively (range = 20-100 cm). There was a significant positive correlation between cord length and fetal weight (r = 0.2177, p less than 0.001) and also between cord length and placental weight (r = 0.2504, p less than 0.001). Other fetal and maternal variables studied did not correlate with cord length. Further investigations of the factors responsible for the growth of the umbilical vessels are needed.
在这项对602名足月分娩的尼日利亚婴儿脐带长度的研究中,平均、中位数和众数测量值分别为57.48、57.71和68.00厘米(范围=20 - 100厘米)。脐带长度与胎儿体重之间存在显著正相关(r = 0.2177,p < 0.001),脐带长度与胎盘重量之间也存在显著正相关(r = 0.2504,p < 0.001)。所研究的其他胎儿和母亲变量与脐带长度无关。需要进一步研究导致脐血管生长的因素。
