Table 5 Effect of splenial signal abnormality, seizure, APGAR score, or pH on developmental delay using BSID scale at 12 to 18 months of age
From: Restricted diffusion of the callosal splenium is highly specific for seizures in neonates
Normal/no delays (N = 21) | Moderate delays (N = 11) | Severe delays (N = 4) | P | |
