    Author: Mayanda HF, Nzingoula S, Diamouangana N, Senga P.
    Journal: Ann Pediatr (Paris); 1992 Feb; 39(2):131-4. PubMed ID: 1580527.
    Abstract:
    This study of birth weights of full term neonates completes the preliminary investigations undertaken in Brazzaville in 1985. Mean birth weight was 3,090 +/- 492 g, with higher values in males than in females. Birth weight increased with maternal age up to 30 years, with parity up to 5, and with maternal weight/stature ratio. Nutritional factors seemed to have a major influence on the birth weight of full term babies.
