[Polydimensional studies into frequency of "infants of low birth weight", with reference to age, parity, and occupation (author's transl)].
Retrospective polydimensional studies were conducted into correlations between age, parity, and occupation (social status) of gravidae, on the one hand, and deliveries of "infants of low birth weight", on the other. The reference group amounted to 16.729 newborns, twins and stillbirth excluded, with 5.85 per cent of those newborns with low birth weights up to 2,500 g. Included in the above figure are all newborns delivered in the Regional Hospital of Schwerin, between 1969 and 1977.--Any single factor quoted, age, parity, and occupation, was found to affect birth weight, effects being by the following order: parity, age, occupation.
