I never met a baby I didn't like. I didn't always appreciate how they behaved in the #NICU but with age I learned not to take it too personally. #NeoSky

As the #NeoMastodon->#NeoSky bridging does not work too well (only first post in a thread bridges, so my whole point was lost!)
Check the link below, some thoughts why things may not be as bad as they seem, because Sweden is such a great place to be 🤠 (from a #publichealth perspective)

I deployed a calculator for 2025 Fenton 3rd generation preterm growth charts. Also analyzed effect of Fenton 2013 vs 2025 with n=2516 births <34 weeks (2016-2024): • rate of SGA (10%ile) classification from 9.2% to 21%, • mean ∆Z wt birth to discharge changed from -0.67 to -0.43 #NeoSky #PedSky

The 3rd generation Fenton preterm growth charts were recently released, so being a data geek, I did some analysis of how the Fenton 2003/2013/2025 and Olsen 2010 preterm charts compared, and harmonization with the WHO growth standards. Also some opinionated musing. #NeoSky #PedSky #rstats #dataviz
