OBJECTIVE: To determine whether cord ferritin (CF) concentration, an index of in utero iron
status, is associated with auditory neural maturation in premature infants. STUDY DESIGN …

Objective To determine whether cord serum ferritin level is associated with auditory
brainstem evoked response interpeak latencies, an index of auditory neural myelination, in …

Background: In utero latent iron deficiency has been associated with abnormal
neurodevelopmental outcomes during childhood. Its concomitant effect on auditory neural …

Background: Iron is crucial for fetal brain development; however, there are insufficient data
regarding the effects of maternal iron deficiency anemia (IDA) on auditory neural maturation …

LBW infants are at risk of iron deficiency (ID), which is associated with impaired nervous
system development and may lead to prolonged auditory brainstem response (ABR) …

Iron deficiency anemia has long been thought to have effects on the central nervous system
(CNS). Finding direct evidence of this in human infants, however, has been challenging …

BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence suggests that excess iron may be detrimental for brain
development. However, little is known regarding the association between neonatal iron …

BACKGROUND: Some studies find delayed development of the auditory brainstem in
preterm infants, but others do not. AIM: To compare auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) in …

OBJECTIVE: This study was conducted to examine the relation between iron status and
neurobehavioral development in premature infants. STUDY DESIGN: Infants born before 34 …

Objective: Our purpose was to evaluate the association between fetal iron status and mental
and psychomotor development at 5 years of age. Study design: We evaluated the …
