Analysing recent MRI data of adolescents who were born with low birth weight, researchers tie smaller brain volumes to poor academic achievement.
Infants who do not receive analgesics while undergoing treatment and tests in neonatal intensive care could have permanently altered future responses to anxiety, pain and stress in adulthood, a new study reports.
According to a new study, researchers find less brain connectivity between the thalamus and areas of the brain involved in higher cognitive functions in preterm babies.
Researchers report the brainstorm of neural activity in premature babies is governed by the same rules as earthquakes.
Researchers report the adult IQ of preterm and low birth weight babies can be predicted by the age of two, but for full term babies, IQ can not be predicted until they are six.
A new study reports preterm babies could be at increased risk of psychological and neurological problems due to weakened connections in certain brain networks linked to emotion, attention and communication.
A new study reports babies born prematurely perform as well as those who were born full term in developmental tasks of language and cognition.
Researchers report motor problems associated with preterm birth could be due to defects in peripheral nerves.
