“…In addition, there is evidence suggesting a direct correlation between UA‐PI values and fetal size. Several studies found that large‐for‐gestational age fetuses (birth weight >90th centile) and those with birth weight greater than 4000 g have lower UA‐PI values than both appropriate for gestational age and SGA fetuses, 22,49–52 a finding attributed to the positive correlation between fetal size and both placental size and umbilical cord diameter 53–57 . Indeed, we found that UA Doppler centile values decreased progressively as the minimal EFW centile inclusion cut‐off increased.…”

“…Several studies found that large-for-gestational age fetuses (birth weight >90th centile) and those with birth weight greater than 4000 g have lower UA-PI values than both appropriate for gestational age and SGA fetuses, 22,[49][50][51][52] a finding attributed to the positive correlation between fetal size and both placental size and umbilical cord diameter. [53][54][55][56][57] Indeed, we found that UA Doppler centile values decreased progressively as the minimal EFW centile inclusion cut-off increased. This finding suggests that variability in the distribution of Taking our findings into account, along with previous evidence identifying the 25th centile birth weight cut-off as a threshold associated with increased risk of stillbirth, 35 we chose to construct our UA-PI centiles chart using pregnancies with EFW greater than the 25th centile.…”

“…Heavier neonates have been reported to have larger umbilical cords. 21 A correlation between the fetal estimated weight, Wharton jelly content, and UCD was observed in a study but none of the neonates were macrosomic. 4 GDM cord diameter was associated with increased fetal weight in many studies.…”

“…The previous studies showed that the average diameter and circumference of the umbilical cord after birth were 1.5 cm and 3.6 cm, respectively. [ 41 42 ] It has been reported that there are a relationship between umbilical cord diameter and change in placental features. Proctor et al .…”
