Dichotomous variables were analyzed with a Fisher’s exact test aChild migration background, categorized as “yes” = one or both parents born abroad or “no” = both parents born in the Netherlands bA total of 105 patients had a total of 128 IH. The variable “location of IH” represents the number of children with at least one infantile hemangioma at each region cFollow-up time: time interval between cessation of beta-blocker treatment and neuropsychological assessment The original article has been corrected.
