“…41 However, another study demonstrated a significant increase in the incidence of PCEHL among extremely preterm SGA infants of <28 weeks compared with their appropriate-for-gestationalage controls. 42 Whereas the risk for PCEHL was significantly higher in preterm SGA infants than their controls; full-term SGA infants were either at the same level of risk or lower.…”

Objective The objective of this study was to determine the role of non-hospital delivery and other risk factors for permanent congenital and early-onset hearing loss (PCEHL) in a developing country. Design Matched case-control study. Setting Four primary healthcare centres in inner-city Lagos, Nigeria. Population Fifty-six infants with PCEHL and 280 normal hearing controls matched for age and sex from a population of infants not older than 3 months attending Bacille de Calmette-Guérin immunisation clinics. Methods Conditional logistic regression analyses of infant and maternal characteristics associated with PCEHL, and the evaluation of population exposure to each risk factor. Main outcome measures Adjusted matched odds ratios and population attributable risk percent (PAR%). Results Children with PCEHL were significantly more likely to be first born (OR 1.9, 95% CI 1.1-3.6) without skilled attendants at birth (OR 2.4, 95% CI 1.3-4.5) and have a history of neonatal jaundice requiring exchange blood transfusion (NNJ/EBT) (OR 9.6, 95% CI 2.4-38.2) but less likely to be small for gestational age (SGA) (OR 0.1, 95% CI 0.0-0.5). After controlling for other covariates, the absence of skilled attendants at birth (OR 4.2, 95% CI 2.0-8.6) and NNJ/EBT (OR 19.1, 95% CI 4.3-85.5) emerged as predictors of PCEHL, while SGA (OR 0.1, 95% CI 0.0-0.2) retained its inverse relationship with PCEHL. The PAR% was 35.9% for the lack of skilled attendants at birth and 10.6% for having NNJ/EBT. About 23% of children with PCEHL did not exhibit any risk factors. Conclusions NNJ/EBT and the absence of skilled attendant at birth rather than the place of delivery are significant predictors of PCEHL in this study population. Targeted hearing screening using these risk factors would facilitate the detection of about 77% of children with PCEHL.

“…These results showed that the effect of IUGR was more important than the postnatal environment to the growth and development of the children studied. 47 An analysis of these two studies in conjunction warns that the occurrence of catch-up during the first years is not enough to guarantee adequate growth over the long term.…”

“…4,[15][16][17][18] Poor fetal growth or being small for gestational age (SGA) also has been associated with neurodevelopmental problems and ADHD. 4,13,19,20 Most studies have analyzed the association between low birth weight and ADHD. 13 There are, however, limited population-based studies focusing on fetal growth represented by birth weight for gestational age.…”

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have shown an association between prematurity and attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Results concerning late preterm infants are controversial, and studies examining fetal growth represented by weight for gestational age are scarce. Our objective was to examine the association between gestational age by each week of fetal maturity, weight for gestational age, and ADHD.
