RESUMO
We studied the neonatal weight distribution of 15,298 newborns from the Bari District at various gestational ages by the 10th, 50th, and 90th percentiles. After analysis, we constructed a growth chart following the method of Dunn. By comparing our results with those of Dunn's Bristol Perinatal Growth Chart, we found a weight difference of +4.5% in our population. This difference may be related to ethnic as well as socioeconomic factors.
