- Pregnancy duration calculated from a certain and regular last menstrual period (LMP) in 541 pregnancies with spontaneous onset of labour are presented according to fetal size at 10–24 weeks of gestation, i.e. according to z-scores* of head circumference (HC), abdominal circumference (AC), and femur length (FL) in multivariable linear regression** (upper panel). Values for pregnancy duration when adjusted for the difference between LMP- and HC-based gestational ages are shown in the lower panel.
- * Z-scores according to gestational age specific means and standard deviations of each biometric measure.
- ** To normalize the data pregnancy duration used in the regression model are transformed to the power of 10.
- † Test for the association between z-score of each biometric measure and pregnancy duration.
