A non-systematic search in the PubMed was undertaken using terms "birthweight" combined with "gestational age," "menstrual dating," "ultrasound dating," "estimated fetal weight," "customized growth charts," "malformation," "stillbirth," "family influence," and "individualized BW ratio," respectively.
