Each case was matched with two randomly selected controls with an ongoing pregnancy at the same gestation at which the stillbirth occurred.
Controls were matched to cases by gestation, thus ensuring that the controls were representative of the antenatal population at the same gestation at which the stillbirth occurred.
At each completed week of gestation, stillbirth weight was also expressed as a percentage of the mean (POM) of live birth weights at the same gestation; the mean of these percentages, with its 95% confidence interval (CI), was then calculated.
In the UK, since late-fetal deaths (<24 weeks gestation) are not officially registered, there is no requirement for a funeral and parents are not eligible for statutory benefits, unlike births registered as live born at the same gestation resulting in a neonatal death, or stillbirths after 24 weeks gestation.
Omitting stillbirths at low gestations of 24 27 weeks gestation causes bias in the centiles possibly because very small babies at any specified gestation are much more likely to be treated as "effectively" stillborn than larger babies of the same gestation when pregnancy ends as soon as this.
The cohort was selected at the fourth month of gestation and was followed into young adulthood (11 time points) (11– 11).
Controls were women who delivered a singleton infant at term (≥37 weeks of gestation) and were selected from the same hospital of delivery.
Thus weights of neonates born at preterm gestations tend to be lower than fetuses of the same gestational age who go on to deliver at term.
