Standard deviation scores (SDS) at 0 and 12 months of gestation corrected age for the preterm weaning strategy (PWS) and control groups
| 0 months | 12 months | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PWS (n=37) | Controls (n=31) | PWS (n=36) | Controls (n=29) | |
| Values are mean (SE). Repeated measures analysis of variance showed a significant effect due to group (p=0.008) on the change in length SDS over time. | ||||
| Length | −1.1 (0.2) | −1.0 (0.2) | 0.2 (0.2) | −0.1 (0.3) |
| Weight | −1.5 (0.2) | −1.6 (0.2) | −0.7 (0.2) | −0.8 (0.2) |
| Head circumference | −0.2 (0.2) | −0.1 (0.2) | −0.5 (0.2) | −0.5 (0.2) |
