///////////Children born at less than 26 weeks of gestation have more mental and social problems at 11 years of age than do their full-term schoolmates, researchers report in the July issue of Pediatrics.
"Children born extremely immature have significantly greater health problems and special health care needs that require ongoing services through the school years," lead investigator Dr. Aijaz Farooqi told Reuters Health. "However, it is notable that very few children have severe impairments that curtail major activities of daily living. The overall results of this study are reassuring."
