Prediction of severe retinopathy of prematurity using the weight gain, insulin-like growth factor 1, and neonatal retinopathy of prematurity algorithm in a Japanese population of preterm infants

ConclusionThe WINROP algorithm could be used for preterm infants (gestational age of<28 weeks) without a complicated hospital course. Modification of the algorithm will improve its sensitivity and specificity for the Japanese population.
