Postnatal length and weight growth velocities according to Fenton reference and their associated perinatal factors in healthy late preterm infants during birth to term-corrected age: an observational study

Table 3 Growth patterns of Length and Weight in healthy late preterm infants^a

^aCatch-down growth: Z-score change of growth parameters was lower than − 0.67(ΔZ<-0.67); Follow-the-curve growth: Z-score change was in the range of − 0.67~0.67(− 0.67 ≤ ΔZ ≤ 0.67); Catch-up growth: Z-score change of growth parameters exceeded 0.67(ΔZ > 0.67)
