Beery-VMI=Beery Buktenica Test of Visual Motor Integration. *Where the number differed across domains, the highest number is listed. †Where BSID-III composite scores are reported for language and motor development or BSID-II mental development index was used to reflect cognitive and language development; separately, where applicable, cognitive development was assessed using the MSEL cognitive composite score, MDAT total score, or GMDS general quotient. ‡Unadjusted analysis outcomes defined by statistical significance of p<0·05 or through 95% CIs in group comparisons of the mean or comparison of delay where applicable. §Age is given as 12 months if median age of assessment fell within 1 month of this time-point (appendix pp 19–20). ¶Delay reported here; on analysis of mean scores, Le Roux and colleagues10 reported no significant group differences in mean scores; Wedderburn and colleagues32 reported HEU children had lower receptive and expressive language scores than HU children in both unadjusted and adjusted analyses, and lower cognitive scores on unadjusted analysis. ||BSID-II differences at 6 and 18 months only, DDST differences at 6 months. **On analysis of adverse outcomes, HEU children had significantly more expressive language adverse outcomes than HU children on unadjusted and adjusted analyses. ††Studies included as median age within age range.
