Children born small-for-gestational-age (SGA) have varying growth patterns and developmental risks. In this study, we aimed to examine the relationship between weight-for-age z-scores (WAZ) at 2 years and neurodevelopmental and obesity outcomes at 6 years in children with SGA.Methods
We conducted a population-based cohort study using the National Health Insurance Service database of South Korea (N = 39,809). WAZ at 2 years was used to categorize children into four groups: G1 (WAZ < -1.28 [10th percentile], n = 9416), G2 (-1.28 ≤ WAZ < 0 [50th percentile], n = 20,322), G3 (0 ≤ WAZ < 1.04 [85th percentile], n = 8280), and G4 (1.04 ≤ WAZ, n = 1791).
