Systematic review of chorioamnionitis and cerebral palsy
Abstract
In a recent meta‐analysis evaluating the relationship between chorioamnionitis and cerebral palsy, we found that chorioamnionitis is a risk factor for both cerebral palsy and cystic periventricular leukomalacia (cPVL). The current paper extends the meta‐analysis by including studies published in the year 2000, and by further evaluating the causes of heterogeneity among individual study results. Using a random effects model, clinical chorioamnionitis was significantly associated with both cerebral palsy (RR 1.9, 95% CI 1.5–2.5) and cPVL (RR 2.6, 95% CI 1.7–3.9). Sources of heterogeneity included widely varying practices in the diagnosis of clinical chorioamnionitis, different gestational age characteristics, and varying study year. We conclude that based on the available literature, chorioamnionitis is a risk factor for both cerebral palsy and cPVL. MRDD Research Reviews 2002;8:25–29. © 2002 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
