  • The fetuses were weighed and grouped according to their gestational ages which were estimated using their crown-vertebral-rump length. (animalscipublisher.com)
  • A measurement is then taken from the tip of the head to the little bottom, called the crown rump length (CRL). (dfmedical.ie)
  • After 13 weeks of gestation, the fetal age may be estimated using the biparietal diameter (the transverse diameter of the head, across the two parietal bones), the head circumference, the length of the femur, the crown-heel length (head to heel), and other fetal parameters. (wikipedia.org)
  • Interpretation: Our results support the hypothesis that higher maternal cortisol levels may adversely impact birth weight, weight for length in newborns, and postpartum depressive symptoms in mothers. (bvsalud.org)
