Furthermore, the distribution of the different categories of FMs may be different between a group of infants with high risk of later neurological impairment and a group of a mix of high risk and normal infants included in a former study using the same method [2].

Nevertheless, the outcome variables evaluated in the present study is an important step in the development of more cost effective clinical detection of abnormal GMs.
