  1. ξ In this column, samples consisting children with cerebral palsy are highlighted bold
  2. ¥ In this column, bold is used to indicate where assessment findings were communicated more frequently in writing/treatment was provided less frequently/children were placed on a review less frequently than the sample average
  3. ± Median LoT shorter than the sample average
