Relationship between Apgar scores and long-term cognitive outcomes in individuals with Down syndrome
Abstract This study examined the contribution of the Apgar score at 1 and 5 min after birth to later cognitive functioning in 168 individuals with Down syndrome who were between 6 and 25 years of age at time of cognitive testing. Our results showed that a lower Apgar score at 1 min was related to a...
