Data are given as n (%). Adjusted ORs were evaluated by multivariate analyses (models 1, 2, and 3). Bold text indicates a significant association.

Model 1: diabetes mellitus or gestational diabetes mellitus, histological chorioamnionitis, administration of antenatal corticosteroid, mode of delivery, gender, and birth weight were included in the logistic regression model.

Model 2: diabetes mellitus or gestational diabetes mellitus, histological chorioamnionitis, administration of antenatal corticosteroid, mode of delivery, and gender were included in the logistic regression model.

Model 3: diabetes mellitus or gestational diabetes mellitus, histological chorioamnionitis, administration of antenatal corticosteroid, mode of delivery, gender, and SGA were included in the logistic regression model.

HDP, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy; IVH, intraventricular haemorrhage; PVL, periventricular leukomalacia; DQ, developmental quotient; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval; SGA, small for gestational age.
