Implication

Case-control study finds that D-scores effectively predict limited intellectual functioning, highlighting the role of parental and neonatal characteristics.

Key Points

The D-score significantly predicts limited intellectual functioning at ages 5–10, demonstrating its clinical relevance.
An IQ prediction area under the curve reached 0.94 when combining all developmental milestones with parental characteristics.
Data included 600 children, categorized into three IQ groups, emphasizing the importance of early developmental assessments.
Neonatal and parental characteristics alone predict an IQ of 50–69 with an area under the curve of 0.75.
