Study design
Clinical trial
Follow Up
**Mothers**
Following randomization, participants were followed at their infants’ 14 days, 35 days, 36 weeks’ postmenstrual age (PMA) and 40 weeks’ PMA. **Infants**
Following randomization of their mothers, participants were continuously monitored until 40 weeks’ PMA and at 18-22 months’ corrected age (CA).
Supplementary Information
Mothers were randomized within 72h after delivery of their premature infant(s) in a 1:1 ratio to DHA or placebo according to computer-generated random lists of treatment allocations, using variable permuted block sizes of 4 and 6, with a separate list for each center. Infants from multiple births were assigned to the same group because randomization was performed at the mother level. Site pharmacists were provided with a blinded randomization list of identification numbers unique to each infant. Treatment bottles were identical, dispensed by site pharmacists who were blinded to the treatment allocation, and sealed and labeled with the participant's name, protocol number, study ID, and kit number for traceability. Interim analyses and DSMB reports were prepared by biostatisticians not directly involved with the trial. All investigators, research staff, clinicians, pharmacists, the main trial statistician, and participants at each trial site, as well as the data coordinating center, were blinded to treatment allocation throughout the entire trial and data analysis.
