Morphine sulfate, per 1 mg/kg 0.70 (0.28-1.70) .43
Pentobarbital sodium, per 10 mg/kg 1.02 (0.90-1.15) .74
Glycopyrrolate, per 1 μg/kg 1.00 (1.00-1.01) .14
Fluranes (per exposure)c 1.10 (1.01-1.21) .03
Duration (per h) 1.03 (1.00-1.06) .04

Abbreviation: RR, relative risk.

a

Models are adjusted for age at diagnosis, sex, total intrathecal chemotherapy count, and cumulative dose of high-dose intravenous methotrexate.

b

Global neurocognitive impairment is defined as 3 or more tests falling more than 2 standard deviations below the age-adjusted population normative means.

c

Number of exposures was identified for fluranes because cumulative dose cannot be accurately captured for inhaled anesthetic agents.
