Values of body height, weight and head circumference in 225 children born with low-birth-weight (LBW) were compared with the same parameters of the control groups. The group of LBW-children was subdivided into 1. "true" preterm, 2. full-term small-for-dates, 3. preterm small-for-dates. At the age of 10 years significantly higher frequencies of individuals with subnormal growth were found in all 3 groups of LBW-children. Severe degrees of growth retardation were found mainly in boys and girls born as small-for-date newborns. The worst impairment of growth was seen in children born as preterm small-for-dates where the retardation of the growth of head circumference was most striking.
对225名低出生体重（LBW）儿童的身高、体重和头围值与对照组的相同参数进行了比较。低出生体重儿童组被细分为：1. “真正的”早产儿；2. 足月小样儿；3. 早产小样儿。在10岁时，发现所有3组低出生体重儿童中生长发育低于正常水平的个体频率显著更高。严重的生长发育迟缓主要见于足月小样儿出生的男孩和女孩。生长发育受损最严重的是早产小样儿出生的儿童，其头围生长迟缓最为明显。
