Background Very-low-birth-weight preterm infants have a higher rate of language
impairments compared with children born full term. Early identification of preterm infants at …

Background Preterm birth can lead to impaired language development. This study aimed to
predict language outcomes at 2 years corrected gestational age (CGA) for children born …

Structural brain abnormalities identified at near-term age have been recognized as potential
predictors of neurodevelopment in children born preterm. The aim of this study was to …

This study aims at testing the hypothesis that neurodevelopmental abilities at age 2years are
related with local brain microstructure of preterm infants at term equivalent age. Forty-one …

At near-term age the brain undergoes rapid growth and development. Abnormalities
identified during this period have been recognized as potential predictors of …

Background Cognitive and language impairments constitute the majority of disabilities
observed in preterm infants. It remains unclear if diffuse excessive high signal intensity on …

Aim To determine whether variability in diffusion MRI (dMRI) white matter tract metrics,
obtained in a cohort of preterm infants prior to neonatal hospital discharge, would be …

Objective To explore whether regional brain volume and white matter microstructure at term-
equivalent age (TEA) are associated with development at 2 years of age in children born …

Background Advanced neuroimaging and computational methods offer opportunities for
more accurate prognosis. We hypothesized that near-term regional white matter (WM) …

Background Children born preterm are more prone to have language difficulties. Few
studies focus on children born extremely preterm (EPT) and the structural differences in …
