Cortical Thickness and Behavior Abnormalities in Children Born Preterm
AIM To identify long-term effects of preterm birth and of periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) on cortical thickness (CTh). To study the relationship between CTh and cognitive-behavioral abnormalities. METHODS We performed brain magnetic resonance imaging on 22 preterm children with PVL, 14 preterm children with no evidence of PVL and 22 full-term peers. T1-weighted images were analyzed with Fr...
متن کاملPostural Behavior in Children Born Preterm
The present paper presents clinical and neurophysiological data of postural behavior in preterm children without CP. Clinical follow-up studies of preterm infants until toddler and school age have reported that low-risk preterm infants may have atypical postural behavior in terms of reduced amount of rotation during crawling, delayed dynamic balance, delayed onset of and a poor quality of early...
متن کاملNeonatal Pain-Related Stress Predicts Cortical Thickness at Age 7 Years in Children Born Very Preterm
BACKGROUND Altered brain development is evident in children born very preterm (24-32 weeks gestational age), including reduction in gray and white matter volumes, and thinner cortex, from infancy to adolescence compared to term-born peers. However, many questions remain regarding the etiology. Infants born very preterm are exposed to repeated procedural pain-related stress during a period of ve...
متن کاملVoice abnormalities at school age in children born extremely preterm.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Voice abnormality is a frequent finding in school age children born at <25 weeks' gestation in Western Australia. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of voice abnormality, voice-related quality of life, and demographic and intubation factors in this population. METHODS Survivors <25 weeks' gestational age in Western Australia born from 1996 to ...
متن کاملAlterations in cortical thickness development in preterm-born individuals: Implications for high-order cognitive functions
Very preterm birth (gestational age <33 weeks) is associated with alterations in cortical thickness and with neuropsychological/behavioural impairments. Here we studied cortical thickness in very preterm born individuals and controls in mid-adolescence (mean age 15 years) and beginning of adulthood (mean age 20 years), as well as longitudinal changes between the two time points. Using univariat...
