Prognostic factors for cerebral palsy and motor impairment in children born very preterm or very low birthweight: a systematic review.

abstract：:Cerebral palsy (CP) can occur in term infants with or without preceding newborn encephalopathy. We compared the type and severity of CP and associated disability in these two groups. Participants from a population-based case-control study of term newborn encephalopathy were followed up for 6 years and linked to the We...
