    Abstract:
    Taking account of the gestational age (28th to 42nd completed week of pregnancy) the sex-related ratio of birth weight to length (g/cm) for newborn infants is reported. This shows that observation of the correlation between birth weight and length with reference to gestational age makes a more accurate classification of newborn infants possible, rather than using a two dimensional classification (birth weight week of gestation).
