After assessment of data validity and representativeness, exclusion criteria were defined: birth weight &gt;90th centile, severe malformations, siblings of multiple births, and gestational age (GA) &lt;25 or &gt;29 weeks. Outcomes of interest were death, severe IVH, PVL, and RDS. Multivariable analyses were performed by Cox proportional hazard and logistic regression models.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Results:<\/jats:bold> Within the data validation procedure, an increase in proportions of both VLBW (from 0.95% in 1991 to 1.11% in 1996; +17%) and SGA (from 22.7% to 27.4%; +21%) infants became apparent (p&lt;0.05). The study population consisted of 1623 infants (173 SGA). Mortality was 12.1% (n \u200a=\u200a 196), with an adjusted hazard ratio for SGA infants of 2.54, 95%\u00a0confidence interval (CI) 1.70 to 3.79. Both groups were at similar risk of severe IVH (adjusted odds ratio 0.93, 95%\u00a0CI 0.5 to 1.65) and PVL (1.54, 95%\u00a0CI 0.78 to 2.87), but SGA infants had less RDS (0.57, 95%\u00a0CI 0.35 to 0.93). Male sex, multiple birth, hypothermia (&lt;35.5\u00b0C), and sepsis were associated with IVH and RDS. Infants admitted to hospitals with &lt;36 VLBW admissions\/year had increased mortality (adjusted hazard ratio 1.56, 95%\u00a0CI 1.12 to 2.18).<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold> SGA VLBW infants are at increased risk of death, but not of IVH and PVL, and at decreased risk of RDS.
