Birth weight showed a slight positive trend in its relationship with word reading and pseudoword reading performance, although it did not reach statistical significance.

a possible trendno p-value reported
Conversely, pseudoword reading ( β = −0.041, p = 0.579) and text comprehension ( β = −0.038, p = 0.673) exhibited slight negative beta values, indicating a possible trend where certain neonatal complications might be weakly associated with poorer reading outcomes, although the effect sizes remain small and non‐significant.

failed to reach significanceno p-value reported
However, these effects were small, inconsistent and failed to reach significance.

a weak trendno p-value reported
In contrast, pseudoword reading ( β = −0.025) and text comprehension ( β = −0.042) displayed slight negative beta coefficients, suggesting a weak trend where certain neonatal complications might be associated with poorer performance in these areas.

also in 1,404 other papers

a negative trendno p-value reported
The results indicate that neonatal complications and prematurity alone do not significantly predict dyslexia diagnosis, but a negative trend was observed between intraventricular haemorrhage and periventricular leukomalacia and reading comprehension and word decoding performance.
