Survival and cerebral palsy in low birthweight infants: implications for perinatal care.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Outcomes of neonates with congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) are variable; reports are frequently limited to the experience of single tertiary care centres-a possible source of bias. Population-based studies decrease survivor bias and provide additional insight into this high-mortality condition. The obje...
