in order to study the usefulness of upper mid-arm circumference ( mac ) and mid-arm circumference : head circumference ratio ( mac : hc ) measurements in assessing longitudinal growth in hospitalized preterm infants , we prospectively measured weights , lengths , occipitofrontal head circumferences ( ofc ) , macs , mac : hcs , weight/length for age , nutritional intakes , and serum transthyretin and albumin levels in 50 preterm , low-birth-weight , appropriate for gestational age newborn infants during their first 4 postnatal weeks and at hospital discharge .
