Se analiz&oacute; la talla materna, el peso inicial al embarazo  y la ganancia global de peso, as&iacute; como el h&aacute;bito de fumar y los  antecedentes obst&eacute;tricos. Se concluye que la baja talla influy&oacute;  notablemente en los casos reci&eacute;n nacidos con bajo peso, as&iacute; como  la malnutrici&oacute;n y la poca ganancia de peso durante la gestaci&oacute;n.  El h&aacute;bito de fumar y la nul&iacute;para con antecedentes de abortos fueron  los antecedentes obst&eacute;tricos m&aacute;s importantes.     <P>Descriptores DeCS:  RECIEN NACIDO DE BAJO PESO; FACTORES DE RIESGO; MADRES.     <P><B>Summary: </B>A retrospective  study of 134 mothers with single pregnancy and newborns with low birth weight  (case-base study) and of 135 mothers with newborns of normal birth weight (control  group) was conducted in the municipality of Marianao during 1993. The maternal  stature, the body weight at the beginning of pregnancy, the total weight gain,  the smoking habit and the obstetric antecedents wee analyzed. It is concluded  that short stature had a marked influence on those cases of newborns with low  weight, as well as malnutrition and the low weight gain during pregnancy. The  most important obstetric antecedent were the smoking habit and the nulliparous  women with previous abortions.     <P>Subject headings: INFANT, LOW BIRTH WEIGHT;  RISK FACTORS; MOTHERS       ]]></body>
