Overview
Brief Summary
This study could help identify aggravating or protective genetic polymorphisms associated with cerebral palsy. Populations of premature babies at different risk of cerebral palsy could thus be individualized with an impact on their monitoring and on the pathophysiological understanding of the processes leading to neurological lesions.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •children born prematurely at term \<34 weeks between 2008 and 2015
- •assessed at the age of 2 within the Growing Together Network in Pays de Loire
- •parental consent for the collection of data from their child and for intraoral sampling for the search for genetic factors.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Identify a polymorphism associated with the risk of developing cerebral palsy at 2 years in a regional population of premature infants of gestational age <34 weeks gestation.
Time Frame: 2 years
frequency of variants within the case and control groups using the statistical criterion "level of significance" (also called p-value and known by the English word "p-value") of 5.10-8
Secondary Outcomes
- Identify a specific polymorphism of certain forms of cerebral palsy(2 years)
- Develop a prognosis algorithm for the occurrence of cerebral palsy for personalized monitoring in a population at risk.(2 years)
