However, norepinephrine was associated with slightly higher 5\u00a0min Apgar scores during therapeutic administration compared with prophylactic administration (MD\u2009=\u20090.16,95% CI:0.01\u20130.31,\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.04).
