Resume

This study presents the results of a prospective investigation into risk factors associated with the birth of full-term newborns who are small for gestational age (SGA). It was established that the development of SGA is multifactorial and determined by a combination of adverse socio-hygienic, socioeconomic, and medical–biological factors. The most significant risk predictors included maternal occupational characteristics and lifestyle factors, inadequate nutrition, unfavorable living conditions, as well as an adverse obstetric history, metabolic syndrome, hypertension, preeclampsia, anemia, and TORCH infections. The obtained findings highlight the need for a comprehensive assessment of perinatal risks and the integration of socioeconomic and clinical–biological factors into antenatal care systems for the prevention of SGA.
