Normal Abnormal Normal Abnormal
SGA alone 42 1267 (554 – 1830) 932 (583 – 1307) 0.39 43 1256 (815 – 1939) 730.6 (564 – 906) 0.008*

Uterine artery (UT) Doppler velocimetry was defined as abnormal if the mean RI was >95th percentile for gestational age. Umbilical artery (UA) Doppler velocimetry was defined as abnormal if either the PI >95th percentile for gestational age or if absent or reversed end-diastolic velocity was present.
