Increased Brain Age Gap Estimate (BrainAGE) in Young Adults After Premature Birth

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021
Recent evidence suggests increased metabolic and physiologic aging rates in premature-born adults. While the lasting consequences of premature birth on human brain development are known, its impact on brain aging remains unclear.

Decreased amygdala volume in adults after premature birth

Scientific Reports, 2021
Premature-born infants have impaired amygdala structure, presumably due to increased stress levels of premature birth mediated by the amygdala. However, accounting for lifelong plasticity of amygdala, it is unclear whether such structural changes persist

An analysis of MRI derived cortical complexity in premature-born adults: Regional patterns, risk factors, and potential significance [PDF]

NeuroImage, 2020
Premature birth bears an increased risk for aberrant brain development concerning its structure and function. Cortical complexity (CC) expresses the fractal dimension of the brain surface and changes during neurodevelopment.

Increased risk of pulmonary hypertension following premature birth

BMC Pediatrics, 2019
Background Pulmonary hypertension (PAH) among children and adults has been linked to premature birth, even after adjustments for known risk factors such as congenital heart disease and chronic lung disease. The aim of this population-based registry study
