Health-related quality of life in adults born extremely preterm or with extremely low birth weight in the postsurfactant era: a longitudinal cohort study

Conclusions
Compared with term-born controls, young adults born EP/ELBW reported poorer HRQoL, as did those with lower IQ compared with those with higher IQ in the EP/ELBW cohort. Given the uncertainties, our findings need corroboration.
