Journal ArticleDOI
Longitudinal Analysis of Neural Network Development in Preterm Infants
Christopher D. Smyser,Terrie E. Inder,Joshua S. Shimony,Jason Hill,Andrew J. Degnan,Abraham Z. Snyder,Jeffrey J. Neil +6 more
TL;DR: Identified patterns of network maturation reflect the intricate relationship of structural and functional processes present throughout this important developmental period and are consistent with prior investigations of neurodevelopment in this population of prematurely born infants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Normal brain in human newborns: apparent diffusion coefficient and diffusion anisotropy measured by using diffusion tensor MR imaging.
Jeffrey J. Neil,S. I. Shiran,Robert C. McKinstry,G. L. Schefft,Abraham Z. Snyder,C. R. Almli,Erbil Akbudak,Joseph A. Aronovitz,J. P. Miller,B. C. P. Lee,Thomas E. Conturo +10 more
TL;DR: The D values primarily reflect overall brain water content and the A sigma values are more sensitive to tissue microstructure (e.g., white matter packing and myelination), which reveal information and not apparent on T1- and T2-weighted images.
Journal ArticleDOI
Similar patterns of cortical expansion during human development and evolution
Jason Hill,Terrie E. Inder,Jeffrey J. Neil,Donna L. Dierker,John W. Harwell,David C. Van Essen +5 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesize that it is beneficial for regions of recent evolutionary expansion to remain less mature at birth, perhaps to increase the influence of postnatal experience on the development of these regions or to focus prenatal resources on regions most important for early survival.
Journal Article
Diffusion-tensor MR imaging of gray and white matter development during normal human brain maturation.
Pratik Mukherjee,Jeffrey H. Miller,Joshua S. Shimony,Joseph V Philip,Deepika Nehra,Abraham Z. Snyder,Thomas E. Conturo,Jeffrey J. Neil,Robert C. McKinstry +8 more
TL;DR: Diffusion-tensor MR imaging is a powerful method for studying the process of brain development, with both scientific and clinical applications, and changes in water diffusion during maturation of central gray and white matter structures can be explained by theoretical models incorporating simple assumptions regarding the influence of brain water content and myelination.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neonatal intensive care unit stress is associated with brain development in preterm infants.
Gillian C. Smith,Jordan Gutovich,Christopher D. Smyser,Roberta Pineda,Carol A. Newnham,Tiong Han Tjoeng,Claudine Vavasseur,Michael Wallendorf,Jeffrey J. Neil,Terrie E. Inder +9 more
TL;DR: The impact on brain development of 1 potential factor, exposure to stressors in the neonatal intensive care unit, has not yet been studied in a systematic, prospective manner.
