胎龄的出生体重百分位图被用来识别低出生体重婴儿。苏格兰目前使用的图表是以20世纪70年代的数据为基础的，自那时以来出生体重和孕周测量的变化需要更新。根据1998-2003年苏格兰100,133个单胎出生的常规数据，使用最小二乘法构建新的百分位数图表。性别和产次分组的出生体重百分位数图表是为单胎出生构建的，并与苏格兰医院现有的图表进行了比较。近几十年来，平均出生体重有所增加。新的百分位数和目前使用的百分位数之间的差异证实了需要更多最新的出生体重百分位数来衡量胎龄。
Centile charts of birthweight for gestational age are used to identify low birthweight babies. The charts currently used in Scotland are based on data from the 1970s and require updating given changes in birthweight and in the measurement of gestational age since then. Routinely collected data of 100,133 singleton births occurring in Scotland from 1998–2003 were used to construct new centile charts using the LMS method. Centile charts for birthweight for sex and parity groupings were constructed for singleton birth and compared to existing charts used in Scottish hospitals. Mean birthweight has been shown to have increased over recent decades. The differences shown between the new and currently used centiles confirm the need for more up-to-date centiles for birthweight for gestational age.
