BSID-III 10 a cognitive, b language, and c motor scores at 2 years of age in relation to lactate/NAA and NAA/Cr ratio quartiles in the thalamus among survivors of moderate to severe HIE. Mean change (95% confidence interval) in BSID-III score per 0.1 unit increase in lactate/NAA ratio, adjusted for site, treatment, and HIE severity: cognitive score: -0.7 (-1.1, -0.4); language score -0.8 (-1.3, -0.3); motor score -1.0 (-1.4, -0.5). Mean change (95% confidence interval) in BSID-III score per 0.1 unit increase in NAA/Cr ratio, adjusted for site, treatment, and HIE severity: cognitive score: 3.6 (1.9,5.3); language score 4.7 (2.6,6.8); motor score 4.4 (2.5,6.3).
