 The National Institutes of Health and the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) provided grant support (Appendix 2; available at www.jpeds.com) for the NICHD Neonatal Research Network's Generic Database Study (Recruitment: 1995-2003) and Follow-up Study. The funding agencies provided overall oversight for study conduct, but all data analyses and interpretation were independent of the funding agencies.
