Abstract

This commentary is on the original articles by Romeo et al. and Uusitalo et al. on pages 939–946 and 947–953 of this issue.

Highlights

  • Two new studies add to this evidence by reporting moderately strong associations between the scores on the Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE) in infancy and cognition later on.[1,2]

  • It is interesting that they report similar results, with the associations remaining strong after excluding children with cerebral palsy (CP) from their analyses

  • The associations found have been demonstrated in several studies regarding the predictive value of General Movement Assessment (GMA) for later cognition.[3]
