this study was to determine the physical growth of healthy full-term neonates during the first month of life. for this porpuse 789 Kermanian healthy full-term singeltone infants were prospectively studied at birth,on the 10th and the 30th day of life for increase in weight(WT),crown heel lenght (CHL),head circumference(HC),chest circumference(CC), and mid arm circumference(MAC).at birth male babies had statistically significant higher values than female for Wt,CHL,HC, (p<0.001).duringg the first 10 days of life the mean (SD) gains in Wt,CHL,HC,CC and MAC were.166.6(137.7) gr 0.9(0.7),0.7(0.3),0.8(0.6) and 0.2(0.4) centimeter respectively.9.9%   of neonates showed weight reduction this period.on the 30 th day of life the mean (SD) gain in weight was 736.6(264) gr and the mean (SD) increase in CHL,HC,CC, and MAC were 3.1(1.3),2.4(0.9),3.1(1.2) and 1.3(0.6) centimeter respectively.there was a significant association (p<0.001) between breast feeding and weight gain during the first 10 days of life.the study showed a significant correlation(p<0.001) between CHL,CC,HC and birthweight.the maximum correlation for CC was (r=0.77),CHL(r=0.73) and HC(r=0.70).multiple stepwise regression analysis showed a significant positive influence of gestational age,gender,maternal age,body mass index(BMI),type of delivery,and breast feeding on some of the anthropometric parameters on the 10th and/or the 30th day of life.percentiles of all anthropometric indices were compared with NCHS standards.the percentiles of Kermanian neonates have lower values than NCHS standards and this suggest,the need for developing national growth reference standards.}, keywords = {neonate,hrowth,Anthropometric indices,Kerman}, url = {https://jkmu.kmu.ac.ir/article_34356.html},

the development of reproductive organs.the results indicated a significant decrease(p<0.0001) in the weight of PTU (propylthiouracil) treated animals when compared to the controls.the level of protein

spleen were observed.the determination of FSH and LH serum level and the comparison of results in the treated animals and controls revealed that LH levels were not significant when the animals were 35 days old,but from the age of 45-55 and 60-70 days.the values were significant(P>0.01 and p<0.001 respectively),when compared to the control groups.the FSH serum density showed a decline up to the 35 days of life (p<0.01) and since then showed an upwared increase up to the 56 days of age(p<0.01).however the onset of puberty in treated animals was delayed.this may happen due to up-regulation
