Summary: | To determine whether mild and severe growth restriction at birth among preterm infants is associated with neonatal mortality and cerebral palsy and cognitive performance at 5 years of age and school performance at 8 years of age.
All 2846 live births between 24 and 32 weeks' gestation from 9 regions in France in 1997 were included in a prospective observational study (the EPIPAGE [Étude Epidémiologique sur les Petits Ages Gestationnels] study) and followed until 8 years of age.
