Cerebral palsy is caused by injury or developmental disturbances to the immature brain and
leads to substantial motor, cognitive, and learning deficits. In addition to developmental …

Cerebral palsy (CP) and related developmental disorders are more common in males than
in females, but the reasons for this disparity are uncertain. Males born very preterm also …

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a complex multifactorial disorder, affecting approximately 2.5–3/1000
live term births, and up to 22/1000 prematurely born babies. CP results from injury to the …

Clinical findings show that male infants with hypoxic-ischemic injury (HI) fare more poorly
than matched females on cognitive outcomes. Rodent models of neonatal hypoxia-ischemia …

OBJECTIVE: To estimate epidemiologic risk factors for cerebral palsy. METHODS: Data
were collected by linkage to state-based perinatal repositories and cerebral palsy registers …

Neonatal hypoxia‐ischemia (HI) is an important cause of neurological deficits in humans,
and the Levine‐Rice model of experimental HI in the rat mimics the human brain lesion and …

A widely accepted concept is that boys are more susceptible than girls to oxidative stress-
related complications of prematurity, including bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) …

We investigated the effect of gender on survival and short-term outcomes of extremely
premature infants (≤ 27 weeks) born in Canada. The records of infants admitted between …

This study aims to determine whether male sex has adverse effect on mortality and
morbidities in very low birth weight infants (VLBWI)< 30 weeks of gestation and to ascertain …

Differences in the development of the male and female brain are an evolving area of
investigation. We are beginning to understand the underpinnings of male and female …
