Introduction: The use of different growth charts can lead to confusion in discussions between professionals. There are obstetric charts (of fetal growth) and neonatal charts (of measurements at birth and of postnatal growth). These charts can be descriptive (derived from an unselected population) or prescriptive (derived from of a population at low risk and with optimal conditions for growth).

Methods: Eligible subjects were born in 2011 at 24-34 weeks of gestation, participated in a French population-based epidemiological study and were free of motor and sensory impairment at 2 years of corrected age.
Article Synopsis
- - A nationwide study is being conducted from September 2015 to March 2017 to better understand neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, involving 794 affected children and collecting comprehensive data on their pregnancy, delivery, and hospitalization.
- - Researchers are implementing follow-up through clinical and parental questionnaires until the children reach 4 years old to monitor long-term outcomes.
- - The findings highlight the clinical presentation of the affected newborns and evaluate factors influencing their hospital discharge outcomes and the effectiveness of therapeutic hypothermia treatment.
Effect of gestational age on cerebral lesions in neonatal encephalopathy.

Objective: To determine the risk on brain lesions according to gestational age (GA) in neonates with neonatal encephalopathy.
Design: Secondary analysis of the prospective national French population-based cohort, Long-Term Outcome of NeonataL EncePhALopathy.
Setting: French neonatal intensive care units.
Objective: To determine whether the relative measurement of birth weight (BW) and head circumference (HC) in preterm infants is associated with neurological outcomes.
Methods: The EPIPAGE-2 Study included 3473 infants born before 32 weeks' gestation, classified based on their Z-score of BW and HC on the Fenton curves as concordant (≤1 SD apart) or discordant (>1 SD difference). We defined four mutually exclusive categories: discordant smaller BW (sBW) with BW
