This review focuses on the role of prenatal hypoxia in the development of brain functions in
the postnatal period and subsequent increased risk of neurodegenerative disorders in later …

The fetal origins of adult disease (FOAD) hypothesis, which was proposed by David Barker
in the United Kingdom in the late 1980s, posited that adult chronic diseases originated from …

Perinatal hypoxia is still one of the greatest threats to the newborn child, even in developed
countries. However, there is a lack of works which summarize up-to-date information about …

Hypoxia (H) and hypoxia‐ischemia (HI) are major causes of foetal brain damage with long‐
lasting behavioral implications. The effect of hypoxia has been widely studied in human and …

Hypoxia threatens brain function during the entire life-span starting from early fetal age up to
senescence. This review compares the short-term, long-term and life-spanning effects of …

A compromised intrauterine environment that delivers low levels of oxygen and/or nutrients,
or is infected or inflammatory, can result in fetal brain injury, abnormal brain development …

Brain development is influenced by various prenatal, intrapartum, and postnatal events
which may interact with genotype to affect the neural and psychophysiological systems …

Perinatal hypoxic‐ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is an important cause of brain injury in the
newborn and can result in long‐term devastating consequences. Perinatal hypoxia is a vital …

Despite major advances in obstetrics and neonatal intensive care, preterm infants frequently
suffer from neurological impairments in later life. Preterm and also full-term neonates are …

Very recent studies in adult gerbils and rats have shown that exposure to sublethal ischemia
can confer neuroprotection from subsequent lethal ischemic episodes. To determine if a …
