Extremely low-gestational-age newborns have a prominently increased risk of brain
dysfunctions attributed to white-matter damage, which is thought to result from the …

White matter injury in the premature infant leads to motor and more commonly behavioral
and cognitive problems that are a tremendous burden to society. While there has been much …

Owing to improved survival rates of premature newborns, the number of very low birth
weight infants is rising. Preterm infants display a greater propensity for brain injury caused …

Cerebral white matter injury, characterised by loss of premyelinating oligodendrocytes (pre-
OLs), is the most common form of injury to the preterm brain and is associated with a high …

Periventricular white matter injury, specifically cystic periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) and
ipsilateral hemorrhage into white matter associated with periventricular-intraventricular …

Perinatal brain injury in survivors of premature birth has a unique and unexplained
predilection for periventricular cerebral white matter. Periventricular white‐matter injury …

Preterm neonates are surviving with a milder spectrum of motor and cognitive disabilities
that appear to be related to widespread disturbances in cell maturation that target cerebral …

White matter (WM) injury, once known primarily in preterm newborns, is emerging in its non-
focal (diffused), non-necrotic form as a critical component of subtle brain injuries in many …

Injury to the preterm brain has a particular predilection for cerebral white matter. White
matter injury (WMI) is the most common cause of brain injury in preterm infants and a major …

The human preterm brain is particularly susceptible to cerebral white matter injury (WMI) that
disrupts the normal progression of developmental myelination. Advances in the care of …
