摘要:Objective.The long-term consequences of the acceleration phenomenon should stimulate an increase of actions towards improving care over mother and child,which is the main task for realisation indicated in the 'European Strategy for Child and Adolescent Health and Development' The aim of the hereby presented research was to state the changes in hight and body mass,depending on the influence of selected paragenetic factors.Methods.A total of 3911 neonates were examined,including 1869 (47.8%) born in 1970 and 2042 (52.2%) born in 2010.It encompasses newborns from the Swietokrzyskie Region.Body length and weight-at-birth,relevant to the subject of the research,were taken into consideration.Since records contain a number of social and demographical data,comparisons include the age and social background of mothers,the week of pregnancy as well as the order of pregnancy and order of labour.Newborns' mothers were divided into two groups: of urban and of rural origin.Results.Since great importance is attached to social and demographical factors in research into acceleration,these traits were compared in the groups from 1970 and 2010.As a result,in comparison to data from 1970,the following conclusions have been drawn: -the age of mothers increased.-there was a significant decrease in the number of newborns of both sexes from first pregnancy and first parturition in favour of those from second pregnancy and second parturition.-the length of pregnancy shortened,especially in the case of female newborns.Conclusions.The connection between the biological condition of neonates and those changes can only be hypothesised and should become the subject of further research.
