Determine whether SGA constitutes a neurodevelopmental risk-factor of MLP, exploring if potential developmental difficulties at toddlerhood persist and are related to school-age performance. 109 SGA and 109 adequate for gestational age MLP children were evaluated at 2 and at 6.5 y.o. SGA children obtained poorer results in several areas at both timepoints; and their development at toddlerhood strongly correlated with only some results at school-age. SGA confers vulnerability to MLP, evolving from global/unspecific difficulties in toddlerhood to a domain-specific profile (attentional/dysexecutive) at 6.5. Findings claim the need for neuropsychological follow-up in MLP to identify emerging difficulties.
确定 SGA 是否构成 MLP 的神经发育风险因素,探索幼儿期是否存在潜在的发育困难,以及这些困难是否与学龄期表现相关。对 109 名 SGA 和 109 名足月出生的 MLP 儿童在 2 岁和 6.5 岁时进行了评估。SGA 儿童在两个时间点的多个领域的表现都较差;而且他们在幼儿期的发展与学龄期的一些结果仅存在强相关性。SGA 使 MLP 处于易损状态,从幼儿期的整体/非特异性困难发展为 6.5 岁时的特定领域(注意力/执行功能)障碍。研究结果表明,有必要对 MLP 进行神经心理学随访,以发现新出现的困难。
