Abstract：
UNASSIGNED: To determine the relationship between postnatal foot lengths and estimated gestational age (EGA) in relation to intrauterine growth patterns determined at birth among Nigerian neonates.
UNASSIGNED: Hospital-based, cross-sectional.
UNASSIGNED: Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital, Sagamu, Nigeria.
UNASSIGNED: 260 neonates with EGA 30- 42 weeks within 48 hours of life.
UNASSIGNED: Postnatal foot lengths (FL) were measured with Vernier digital calliper in millimetres. The intra-uterine growth pattern was determined using the Lubchenco chart. Pearson correlation and regression analysis tests were performed.
UNASSIGNED: Postnatal foot length in relation to Intra-Uterine Growth Pattern.
UNASSIGNED: The mean postnatal FL had a strong positive correlation with the EGA from 30 through 42 weeks (r = 0.855, p < 0.001). The overall mean foot length for preterm neonates was 65.44 (6.92) mm, while that of term neonates was 77.92 (4.24) mm. The linear regression equation was generated as: EGA = 9.43 + (0.37 × FL), p < 0.001. The EGA as measured by FL had the highest positive correlation with Small for Gestational Age (SGA) intra-uterine-growth pattern, followed by Appropriate for Gestational Age (AGA) and least by Large for Gestational Age (LGA) respectively (r = 0.936> 0.861 > 0.666).
UNASSIGNED: The postnatal foot length correlated well with estimated gestational age, and the correlation was best among SGA infants.
UNASSIGNED: None declared.

摘要：
■确定出生后足部长度和估计胎龄（EGA）与尼日利亚新生儿出生时确定的宫内生长模式之间的关系。
■以医院为基础，横截面。
■OlabisiOnabanjo大学教学医院，Sagamu,尼日利亚。
■260例出生后48小时内患EGA30-42周的新生儿。
■用Vernier数字卡尺测量出生后足长度(FL),单位为毫米。使用Lubchenco图确定子宫内生长模式。进行Pearson相关和回归分析检验。
■产后足长与子宫内生长模式的关系。
■从30到42周，出生后平均FL与EGA呈强烈正相关（r=0.855，p<0.001）。早产儿的总体平均足长为65.44（6.92）mm，足月新生儿为77.92（4.24）mm。线性回归方程为：EGA=9.43+(0.37×FL)，p<0.001。通过FL测量的EGA与胎龄小（SGA）子宫内生长模式呈最高正相关，其次是适合妊娠年龄（AGA）和最小的大妊娠年龄（LGA）分别（r=0.936>0.861>0.666）。
■出生后的足长与估计的胎龄有很好的相关性，在SGA婴儿中相关性最好。
