Data are given as n/N (%) unless otherwise indicated.

*

Normal or abnormal scores were based on mean score (100) and SD of predefined reference group.

Abnormal BSID‐III is defined as score ≤ –1 SD below normative mean (100).

Defined as score in clinical range (> 97th percentile).

Defined as at least two hospital admissions and/or at least two operations in 2 years after birth.

§

Composite of BSID‐III score ≤–1 SD or CBCL score in clinical range or physical problem (at least two hospital admissions and/or at least two operations in 2 years after birth).

Pooled outcomes of 10 imputed datasets.
