Parental age effects on neonatal white matter development

Objective: Advanced paternal age is associated with poor offspring developmental outcome. Though an increase in paternal age-related germline mutations may affect offspring white matter development, outcome differences could also be due to …

Different patterns of cortical maturation before and after 38 weeks gestational age demonstrated by diffusion MRI in vivo

Human cortical development during the third trimester is characterised by macro- and microstructural changes which are reflected in alterations in diffusion MRI (dMRI) measures, with significant decreases in cortical mean diffusivity (MD) and …
