“…Table 2 shows that 11 of the 18 articles concluded that there was no difference between the HRQoL of adults born very preterm or with a very low birth weight, and those born at term 3,5,8,11‐13,15,17‐20 . While the results of three articles were inconclusive, 4,7,10 four articles found that HRQoL was lower in adults born very preterm or with a very low birth weight 6‐7,14,16 .…”

“…20 The LBW may be due to poor maternal nutrition, infections during pregnancy, preterm birth, multiple pregnancies, intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) and finally, history of prior low birth deliveries increases the chance of a low birth delivery subsequently. 21 It differs from IUGR which is defined as failure of the fetus to attain its normal genetic growth and specific measures threshold along a normal centiles. 17 Although the true etiology of PP is weakly understood, several factors may be behind its development such as increased maternal age.…”

“…The first very low birthweight babies who were born at the threshold of viability and received modern neonatal intensive care are now adults. A study of all 335 adults born preterm with very low birthweights of less than 1500 g in 1978–1985 and treated in the neonatal intensive care unit in Uusima, Finland, showed that they had a similar health‐related quality of life to their term‐born peers .
