Tests used a threshold of p = 0.001 uncorrected. AGA CON n = 8, AGA HF n = 8, SGA CON n = 8, SGA HF n = 9.

a

Clusters > 20 were included in analysis with threshold set at p = 0.001.

b

Uncorrected P-values.

AGA, appropriate for gestational age; SGA, small for gestational age; CON, control; HF, hydrolyzed fat.
