a

Adjusted odds ratio (95% CI) for categorical outcomes were obtained using Generalized Linear Mixed models. For continuous outcomes, adjusted estimates (95% CI) were obtained using Generalized Linear models. Covariates adjusted in all models were center, male, antenatal steroids, histological chorioamnionitis, hypertension, mode of delivery, mother’s education, and gestational age. Center variations have been adjusted as a random effect for categorical outcomes.

b

Neurodevelopmental impairment is defined as moderate/severe cerebral palsy or Bayley III cognitive or motor score <70, blindness or deafness.

c

Withdrawal of respiratory support among those who died prior to hospital discharge was 23.1% among infants with PHVD, 14.1% among ICH no PHVD and 7.6% among those with normal HUS, P <.001

d

Normal outcome in survivors is defined as no cerebral palsy, Bayley III cognitive composite score ≥85, motor composite score ≥85, no blindness and no deafness.
