Prediction of participation and sensory modulation of late preterm infants at 12 months: A prospective study
Abstract
The aim of the study was to prospectively assess the differences in participation and sensory modulation between late preterm infants (LPI) and term babies, and to predict it by LPI characteristics. The study population includes 124 late preterm infants at gestational age between 34 and 35 6/7 weeks who were born at the same medical center. The control group comprised of 33 term babies (18 boys, 15 girls), born during the same period and location (mean age 12.47, SD = 0.73). Sensory modulation was assessed by the test of sensory functions in infants and the infant/toddler sensory profile and for assessment of participation and parents' satisfaction we used questionnaires. Term infants had better sensory modulation than LPI. Approximately 10% of the sensory modulation of participants in the study was explained by gestational age and head circumference. LPI participation and parental satisfaction decreased in the LPI group. Among all the explanatory variables only multiple gestations and head circumference contributed to the explained variance of participation (16%), and parents' satisfaction (13%). At age of 1 year, children born as late preterm are at increased risk of developing sensory modulation disorder, showing less participation, and resulting in less parental satisfaction.

In preterm and late preterm infants, sensory differences range from modest to substantial when assessed by behavioral questionnaires or interactive sensory exams.
“Sensory differences in preterm and late preterm (34–36 weeks of gestation) infants have been found to be modest to substantial, measured through both behavioral questionnaires and interactive sensory exams [11–13].”

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.
