Effects of white matter injury on resting state fMRI measures in prematurely born infants. [PDF]
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, including cystic periventricular leukomalacia and periventricular hemorrhagic

Frontiers in EEG as a tool for the management of pediatric epilepsy: Past, present, and future
Abstract Electroencephalography (EEG) has evolved into an indispensable tool in pediatric epilepsy, fundamentally transforming the diagnosis, classification, and management of this condition. This review chronicles the historical journey of EEG from its groundbreaking inception to its current pivotal role in delineating distinct pediatric epilepsy ...

Mouse Models of Periventricular Leukomalacia [PDF]
We describe a protocol for establishing mouse models of periventricular leukomalacia (PVL). PVL is the predominant form of brain injury in premature infants and the most common antecedent of cerebral palsy.

Effect of Implementing Neuroprotective Care Bundle on Nurses, Performance and the Incidence of Intraventricular Hemorrhage in Premature Infants [PDF]
Background: Intraventricular hemorrhage remains a serious and a potentially life-threatening complication in preterm or very low birth weight infants. Applying neonatal nursing care bundles can help mitigate the incidence and severity of Intraventricular

Animal Models of Periventricular Leukomalacia [PDF]
Periventricular leukomalacia, specifically characterized as white matter injury, in neonates is strongly associated with the damage of pre-myelinating oligodendrocytes. Clinical data suggest that hypoxia-ischemia during delivery and intrauterine or neonatal infection-inflammation are important factors in the etiology of periventricular leukomalacia ...
