Cross-population analysis of the growth of long bones and the Os coxae of three early medieval Austrian populations

Article Abstract:

Growth curves of the upper and lower extremities of additional archaeological populations and modern North-American population are assessed and bone measurements are analyzed against dental age estimates. The results show differences between bones in the extent of inter-population variability, with diaphyseal long-bone growth showing equivalent patterns across the four populations.

Impact of maternal age and maternal somatic characteristics on newborn size

Article Abstract:

Age, prepregnancy weight, and pregnancy weight gain are significantly associated with pregnancy outcome for mothers aged 12 to 16. Within term births in the context of psychosocial support, children born to younger mothers tended to be significantly lighter and smaller than those born to more mature women.
