Does “the motor system” play “a role” in speech perception? If so, where, how, and when?
We conducted a systematic review that addresses these questions using both qualitative …

Background Despite advances in antenatal and neonatal care, preterm birth remains a
leading cause of neurological disabilities in children. Infants born prematurely, particularly …

Premature birth is associated with high rates of motor and cognitive disability. Investigations
have described resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) correlates of …

Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common movement disorder in children. A diagnosis of CP
is often made based on abnormal muscle tone or posture, a delay in reaching motor …

Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is an MRI technique that can measure the macroscopic
structural organization in brain tissues. DTI has been shown to provide information …

The cerebral white matter is vulnerable to injury in very preterm infants (born prior to 30
weeks gestation), resulting in a spectrum of lesions. These range from severe forms …

Brain injury sustained during the neonatal period may disrupt development of critical
structural and functional connectivity networks leading to subsequent neurodevelopmental …

Although cerebral palsy (CP) is among the most common causes of physical disability in
early childhood, we know little about the functional and structural changes of this disorder in …

Whether intraventricular hemorrhage increases the risk of adverse developmental outcome
among premature infants is controversial. Using brain ultrasound, we identified …

Spastic cerebral palsy (CP), despite the name, is not consistently identifiable by specific
brain lesions. CP animal models focus on risk factors for development of CP, yet few …
