The aim of our study was to determine whether area deprivation index (ADI), a measure of neighborhood socioeconomic disadvantage, at birth is associated with 18-month NDI of preterm infants born in dense urban setting. Methods A retrospective case-cohort study was performed in infants born at 23–32 weeks gestational age (GA) with birth weight (BW) ≤1250 g between 2013 and 2017 and evaluated for NDI at 18-month corrected age (CA). Socioeconomic deprivation was computed geospatially using subject addresses that were mapped to national ADI rankings. Subjects were categorized as low (&lt;26 th percentile) or high (26–100 th percentile) ADI neighborhoods and with/without NDI if any of Bayley-III cognition, language, or motor composite scores were &lt;70. The relationship between ADI and NDI was analyzed using logistic regression adjusted for GA and BW and group comparisons were made. Results Data were available in 119 patients (GA = 27.2 ± 2.2 weeks, BW = 870 ± 246 g). Children with NDI at 18-month CA were born at an earlier GA ( p &lt; .001) with lower BW ( p &lt; .03) and to mothers living in high ADI neighborhoods ( p &lt; .02). Patients from lower ADI neighborhoods at birth had higher Bayley-III cognition ( p &lt; .0001), language ( p &lt; .005), and motor ( p = .03) composite scores at 18-month CA. Cognition ( p &lt; .01), language ( p &lt; .003) and motor ( p &lt; .03) composite scores decreased with increasing ADI percentiles. Conclusions Among infants born 23–32 weeks GA in a dense urban setting, ADI at birth is associated with NDI at 18 months with lower cognitive, language, and motor scores in preterm infants from higher ADI neighborhoods.","journal":"Journal of Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine","year":2024,"id":451160,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":4,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.8758,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":false,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2024-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":1189154,"name":"Faith Kim","orcid":"0000-0002-0344-0613","position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":471658,"name":"Joseph R.
