Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Full Scale IQ Score | At 5 years chronological age | The primary outcome will be the Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence-Third Edition (WPPSI-III) full scale IQ score. Verbal, visuo-spatial and processing speed skills are incorporated into the Full Scale IQ score, which is indicative of general intellectual ability. Minimum score: 45 Maximum score:145 Higher scores are associated with higher IQ scores (better outcome). Note: Scale ranges represent estimates that are very likely to be accurate but which will be verified after access to the physical assessment booklets is restored. The current health situation prohibits the research team from verifying this information at the moment. |
| Secondary | Verbal IQ | At 5 years corrected age. | Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence, Third Edition (WPPSI-III): Verbal IQ Minimum possible score:45 Maximum possible score:145 A higher score indicates higher verbal IQ (better outcome). Note: Scale ranges represent estimates that are very likely to be accurate but which will be verified after access to the physical assessment booklets is restored. The current health situation prohibits the research team from verifying this information at the moment. |
| Secondary | Performance IQ | At 5 years corrected age | Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence, Third Edition (WPPSI-III): Performance IQ Minimum possible score:45 Maximum possible score:145 A higher score indicates a higher performance IQ (better outcome). Note: Scale ranges represent estimates that are very likely to be accurate but which will be verified after access to the physical assessment booklets is restored. The current health situation prohibits the research team from verifying this information at the moment. |
| Secondary | Processing Speed Quotient | At 5 years corrected age | Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence, Third Edition (WPPSI-III): Processing speed quotient Minimum possible score:45 Maximum possible score:145 A higher score indicates a better outcome. Note: Scale ranges represent estimates that are very likely to be accurate but which will be verified after access to the physical assessment booklets is restored. The current health situation prohibits the research team from verifying this information at the moment. |
| Secondary | Sentence Repetition Scaled Score | At 5 years chronological age | Developmental Neuropsychological Assessment second edition (NEPSY-II) sub test: Sentence Repetition scaled score Minimum possible score: 1 Maximum possible score: 19 A higher score indicates a better outcome. |
| Secondary | Auditory Attention Combined Scaled Score | At 5 years corrected age | Developmental Neuropsychological Assessment Second Edition (NEPSY-II) Sub Test: Auditory Attention combined scaled score Minimum possible score: 1 Maximum possible score: 19 A higher score indicates a better outcome. |
| Secondary | Statue Scaled Score | At 5 years corrected age | Developmental Neuropsychological Assessment Second Edition (NEPSY-II) Sub Test: Statue scaled score Minimum possible score: 1 Maximum possible score: 19 A higher score indicates a better outcome. |
| Secondary | Inhibition Combined Scaled Score | At 5 years corrected age | Developmental Neuropsychological Assessment Second Edition (NEPSY-II) Sub Test: Inhibition combined scaled score Minimum possible score: 1 Maximum possible score: 19 A higher score indicates a better outcome. |
| Secondary | Word Generation Scaled Score | At 5 years corrected age | Developmental Neuropsychological Assessment Second Edition (NEPSY-II) Sub Test: Word Generation Scaled score Minimum possible score: 1 Maximum possible score: 19 A higher score indicates a better outcome. |
| Secondary | Affect Recognition Scaled Score | At 5 years corrected age | Developmental Neuropsychological Assessment Second Edition (NEPSY-II) Sub Test: Affect Recognition scaled score Minimum possible score: 1 Maximum possible score: 19 A higher score indicates a better outcome. |
