Brief Summary: Magnesium is neuroprotective in neonatal animal models of acquired hypoxic-ischemic andor inflammatory cerebral lesions It is associated with a significant reduction of perinatal death and cerebral palsy in some observational studies

The objective of the study is to assess if prenatal magnesium sulfate given to women at risk of preterm birth before 33 weeks gestation is neuroprotective
Detailed Description: This is a randomized controlled trial at 18 french tertiary hospitals with stratification by center and multiple births in women at risk of preterm birth before 33 weeks gestation and without vascular disease of pregnancy

Women received 4 g of a 01 gml magnesium sulfate solution or isotonic serum chloride solution 09

The main outcome measures are rates of mortality up to discharge of severe white matter injury defined by the presence of cavitations andor intraparenchymal haemorrhages on cranial ultrasonographic studies and of combined death and severe white matter injury

The secondary outcome measures are rates of white matter injury defined by the presence of cavitations andor intraparenchymal haemorrhages and persisting hypechogenicities at 15 day intervals on cranial ultrasonographic studies follow-up at two years of age
