A retrospective cohort study using ultrasound data from 527 low risk pregnancies of Somali ethnicity at single tertiary care center between 2011 and 2017 aimed to model fetal growth standards within a healthy Somali population between 16 and 40 weeks gestation, and address possible differences in the growth patterns compared with standards for non-Hispanic White, non- Hispanic Black, Hispanic, and Asian singleton fetuses.

Investigating the impact of correcting for differences in fetal growth potential on the variability of third-trimester size standards found decreased variability can improve the sensitivity of IGA for detecting restricted growth and may be partly responsible for its ability to identify different types of growth abnormalities earlier in pregnancy.

The significant differences between the centile charts and those from INTERGROWTH-21 imply the necessity to have local standards of fetal biometry, while the differences of the results from the older study in the same population show the importance of updating fetalBiometry reference charts for every generation.
