The stature and weight of Coloured primigravidas delivering at term in Cape Town were investigated. When compared with White mothers they were found to be significantly shorter, lighter and thinner. It is postulated that both childhood undernutrition and an inadequate diet during pregnancy are responsible for these findings.
对在开普敦足月分娩的有色人种初产妇的身高和体重进行了调查。与白人母亲相比,发现她们明显更矮、更轻、更瘦。据推测,童年时期营养不良和孕期饮食不足是造成这些结果的原因。
