Mon:months, CA: corrected age; GA: gestational age; SGA, Small-for-gestational age: a birth weight below the 10th percentile for gestational age based on Fenton’s growth chart. AGA: appropriate-for-gestational age: a birth weight between the 10th percentile and 90th percentile for gestational age. Chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test was used to analyze. *: statistically significant
