Table 2.

Logistic regression of the association between neonatal hypoglycemia in the first 24 hours and injury to various brain structures on MRI. Univariate analyses demonstrate the unadjusted relationship between neonatal hypoglycemia and brain injury, while multivariate analyses adjust for markers of perinatal hypoxia-ischemia.
