Opis

Children's health is tomorrow's wealth is one of the World Health Organization (WHO)'s slogans in recent years. At birth, foetal weight is accepted as the single parameter that is directly related to the health and nutrition of the mother, and on the other hand, is an important determinant of the chances of the newborn to survive and experience healthy growth and development. This is because low birth weight (LBW) has been shown to be directly related to both immediate, long-term and very long-term development and well-being of the newborn. It is also a subject of increasing clinical and epidemiological investigations and a target for public health intervention.
