Data are presented as the median (IQR).
*p Values calculated using Mann-Whitney U test to compare group scores with AGA reference group. Crude OR, unadjusted OR calculated for the risk of abnormal score (<85) in any of the measured domains compared with the reference AGA group. Adjusted OR, adjusted for sex, maternal years of schooling, socioeconomic index and smoking status during pregnancy.
AGA, appropriate-for-gestational age; BSIDIII, Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development Version III; SGA, small-for-gestational age; STGA, small- and thin-for-gestational age; TGA, thin-for-gestational age.
