title: [Epidemiologic study on small-for-gestational-age neonates carried out at the Velletri civil hospital (U.S.L. RM 31) 1981-83].
abstract: The authors at the Ospedale of Velletri performed a study about the relationship between the small for date infants, and various medical, socio-economical and cultural conditions of the parents. From the collected data we affirm that, since 1981 an evident and continuous lowering of small for date natality rate occurred and, on the other hand, socio-economical and cultural conditions of the parents improved as well. We guess, that what we remarked was due to the educational work performed by medical and paramedical staff of the services of neonatology and obstetrics on the "Ospedale civile di Velletri", and by the staff of the consultatory of U.S.L. RM 31.
