title: [Concentration of C3 in sera of small for gestational age newborns in relation to sex and degree of hypotrophy].
abstract: 36 small-for-date newborns both sexes with body weight below 10 percentiles were included to our studies. To control group we have enrolled 33 newborns in the same fetal age. We conducted the present study to address whether fetal hypotrophy induce or not decrease of the concentration of C3 in sera of these newborns. Despite of our expectations we have found there is increase C3 in sera in relation to the degree of hypotrophy. We have noted the concentration of C3 is not related to the sex both small-for-date newborns and newborns.
