Data Collection Event
5 Year Follow Up
At 5 years of age, a physical clinical assessment was carried out. Developmental and neurological outcomes were assessed using the Reynell Developmental Language Scales Third Edition (RDLS-III), Kaufman Assessment Battery for Children 2nd Edition (KABC) and Movement Assessment Battery for Children (Movement ABC). Parents and teachers also completed Movement ABC questionnaires, and the Edinburgh Depression Questionnaire was completed by the mother of participants. Sociodemographic and environmental exposures were identified using a parental questionnaire. Cardiovascular characteristics and blood biomarkers were also measured in subgroups of the cohort.
