Risk factors associated with cerebral palsy in preterm infants.
OBJECTIVE To examine pregnancy outcomes in preterm delivered children with cerebral palsy (CP). METHODS A retrospective population-based cohort study of children born in California (January 1, 1991 and December 31, 2001) with CP were identified (State databases) and compared to children without CP. We examined demographic data and pregnancy outcomes by gestational age groups controlling for m...
متن کاملT2-relaxometry predicts outcome of DBS in idiopathic Parkinson's disease
INTRODUCTION Deep brain stimulation (DBS) nowadays is a well-established treatment of motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease. The subthalamic nucleus (STN) is a common target for DBS, because motor improvements have been shown to be superior to best medical therapy, if DBS electrodes have been appropriately positioned. DBS target identification can be assisted by MRI beyond structural imaging by...
متن کاملCerebral oxygenation in preterm infants.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Prone sleeping is a major risk factor for sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and preterm infants are at significantly increased risk. In term infants, prone sleeping is associated with reduced mean arterial pressure (MAP) and cerebral tissue oxygenation index (TOI). However, little is known about the effects of sleeping position on TOI and MAP in preterm infants. We ai...
متن کاملLongitudinal development in the preterm thalamus and posterior white matter: MRI correlations between diffusion weighted imaging and T2 relaxometry
Infants born prematurely are at increased risk of adverse neurodevelopmental outcome. The measurement of white matter tissue composition and structure can help predict functional performance. Specifically, measurements of myelination and indicators of myelination status in the preterm brain could be predictive of later neurological outcome. Quantitative imaging of myelin could thus serve to dev...
متن کاملAssessment of neurological status in preterm infants in neonatal intensive care and prediction of cerebral palsy.
The purpose of this study was to determine the diagnostic accuracy of a neurological assessment performed before discharge from the nursery to predict cerebral palsy at three years of age in preterm infants. Infants born < 31 weeks gestation between 1992 and 1996 were assessed using the Lacey Assessment of the Preterm Infant (LAPI) prior to discharge. Infants were classified as having no abnorm...
