Background: Approximately 30% of babies born in India are low birth weight (LBW) and
about 70% of LBW babies are small for gestational age (SGA). Though there are several …

BACKGROUND: It is known that small for gestational age (SGA) babies may be at an
increased risk of cardiovascular diseases during adulthood. There is paucity of literature …

Purpose SGA infants with fetal growth restriction have reduced ability to adapt themselves to
the postnatal life because of certain epigenetic changes in cardiac function. The aim of the …

BACKGROUND: The aim of this study is to evaluate the cardiac functions of term small for
gestational age (SGA) babies with mild growth retardation by echocardiography during the …

Aim Aim of the study is to evaluate the myocardial performance index in intrauterine growth
restricted fetuses and compare this index with appropriate for gestational age fetuses …

ObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to evaluate the cardiac functions and age-related
changes of these functions in full-term small for gestational age infants during the first 3 …

Objectives To study changes in heart function and hemodynamics during the transitional
period in small for gestational (SGA) infants and appropriate (AGA) healthier counterparts …

Objective: The development of the left cardiac structures in the early life of small for
gestational age (SGA) preterm infants has been inadequately studied. The aim of the study …

Aim The aim of this study was to demonstrate the changes of right and left myocardial
performance indices (MPI) in small‐for‐gestational age (SGA) fetuses during 28–40 weeks …

Objective To investigate the differences in cardiac function and arterial biophysical
properties between term-born appropriate for gestational age (AGA) infants and small for …
