FIGURE 3

Anthropometric and body composition parameters expressed in SDS in selected group of infants with body composition measurement at 2-mo corrected age (A) and 6-mo corrected age (B) for male infants and female infants separately. Box plots represent median SDS with IQR and whiskers of min-max range (with outliers as dots). SDS were calculated with WHO growth reference charts for anthropometric parameters, and with UK reference values for body composition parameters (33). *Significantly different from zero (normal population mean) (analyzed with 1-sample Wilcoxon test). Missing data: n = 3 for HCFA at 2-mo corrected age, n = 2 for HCFA, and n = 3 for MUAC at 6-mo corrected age. FFM, fat-free mass; FFMI, fat-free mass index; FM, fat mass; FMI, fat mass index; HCFA, head circumference-for-age; LFA, length-for-age; MUAC, midupper arm circumference; SDS, SD score; WFA, weight-for-age; WFL, weight-for-length.
