Abstract

The depth and volume of the primary olfactory sulcus and secondary orbital sulci in a sample of 22 adolescents with history of very-preterm birth (VPTB), compared to control subjects born at term, were measured, using MRI Anatomist/Brain VISA 3.0.1 package, and possible reductions in gray and white matter analyzed, using voxel-based morphometry (VBM), in a study at University of Barcelona, Spain.

Highlights

  • The depth and volume of the primary olfactory sulcus and secondary orbital sulci in a sample of 22 adolescents with history of very-preterm birth (VPTB), compared to control subjects born at term, were measured, using MRI Anatomist/Brain VISA 3.0.1 package, and possible reductions in gray and white matter analyzed, using voxel-based morphometry (VBM), in a study at University of Barcelona, Spain

  • Survivors of overt neonatal encephalopathy are at risk of developing cognitive deficits, even in the absence of functional motor deficits, according to a review of the literature

  • The cognitive deficits occur in survivors of moderate and severe neonatal encephalopathy, and especially in those with a watershed pattern of injury, involving cortex and white matter in posterior intervascular boundary regions
