Association of maternal birth weight with the risk of low birth weight and small-for-gestational-age in offspring: A prospective single-center cohort study.

<h4>Background</h4>Although low birth weight in Japan has slightly increased over the past several decades, the association between maternal birth weight and pregnancy outcomes remains poorly understood.<h4>Methods</h4>In this hospital-based, prospective cohort study conducte...
