		Customized classification^a
		Small size for gestational age n = 605	Appropriate size for gestational age n = 4842	Large size for gestational age n = 605
Population classification^b	Small size for gestational age n = 605	455 (75.2)	150 (24.8)	0 (0)
	Appropriate size for gestational age n = 4842	150 (24.8)	4563 (94.2)	129 (21.3)
	Large size for gestational age n = 605	0 (0)	129 (21.3)	476 (78.7)

AGA is defined as gestational age-adjusted birth weight > 10th and < 90th percentile according to the customized chart. LGA was defined as gestational age-adjusted birth weight > 90th percentile of the customized chart
