Steady Growth in Early Infancy Is Associated with Greater Anthropometry in Indian Children Born Low Birth Weight at Term

ConclusionsThe explanation for the effects of delayed growth and length of the period in which trajectories are set is unclear; however, sustained and delayed growth in early infancy appears to be beneficial for these LBW children at least in the short-term. The trial was registered atclinicaltrials.gov as BT/PR7489/PID/20/285/2006.
