Curves trajectories of weight-growth and weight-growth velocity in the VLBW infants according to ACS regimens. VLBW, very-low-birth-weight; ACS, antenatal corticosteroids; GA, gestational age. Data are mean weight (a and b) or mean weight-growth velocity (c and d). a: Curve trajectories of mean weight in total VLBW preterm infants. b: Curve trajectories of mean weight in total VLBW preterm infants stratified by GA. c: Curve trajectories of mean weight-growth velocity in total VLBW preterm. d: Curve trajectories of mean weight-growth velocity in total VLBW preterm stratified by GA. GA: 1 = GA < 28 weeks, 2 = 28 weeks ≤ GA < 32 weeks, 3 = 32 weeks ≤ GA < 37 weeks. Data were collected until 37 postmenstrual age
