Head Growth Trajectories During the First Year of Life and Risk of Autism Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Atypical infant head circumference (HC)—including increased rates of macrocephaly and microcephaly—has been linked to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, specific head growth trajectories associated with ASD remain poorly defined. This retrospective case–control study aimed to delineate these trajectories and examine their relationship to

Brain Health for Children

open access: yesBrain Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The World Health Organization (WHO) defines brain health as the maintenance of optimal brain integrity, good mental state, and cognitive function without significant neuropsychiatric disease. Early childhood is a critical period for brain development, which were influenced by early experiences, nutrition, and environmental factors. Disruptions

Early‐Life Clinical Factors Shape Cerebellar Structure in Preterm‐Born Children

open access: yesAnnals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Preterm birth alters typical brain development due to complex exposures related to neonatal illness, pain management, and brain injury. Despite an increased understanding of neonatal brain injury on developmental outcomes, the association of cerebellar maturation with school‐age motor and cognitive function remains incompletely ...

Fetal Pain Perception: Legislative Assertions and Developmental Neuroscience

open access: yesAnnals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pain perception is a conscious experience, but neither pain nor consciousness is defined in the developing human fetus. Emergent consciousness may be regarded as a phenomenon that ultimately arises from an essential minimum of functional neuronal connectivity. Proposed U.S.

SVseq discloses the genomic complexity of different prenatal, de novo, apparently balanced chromosome rearrangements detected by CMA and karyotype

open access: yesItalian Journal of Pediatrics
Background Balanced chromosomal rearrangements (BCRs) are common structural variations (SVs), but only a small number of individuals with BCRs exhibit abnormalities. To better understand the different phenotypes in children diagnosed with BCRs during the

Pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets of trichorhinophalangeal syndrome; lessons obtained from animal studies

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is a rare genetic disease inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. It occurs in 1 in 100,000 people globally and is caused by several types of mutations of the TRPS1 gene. Since the first human patient was reported in 1966, typical and atypical pathologies, disease courses, and treatment case ...

Preliminary Evidence of the Association Between Binge Eating and Preeclampsia in Pregnant U.S. Military Active‐Duty Service Women

open access: yesInternational Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Binge eating is the most common disordered eating behavior among pregnant women. This study examined the association of binge‐eating frequency with the presence of a self‐reported current preeclampsia diagnosis in a sample of U.S. military active‐duty Service women. Methods Active‐duty Service women (N = 134), 20–27 weeks gestation,

A novel PTEN variant causing hemimegalencephaly and focal nodular heterotopias in the developing human brain

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Brain development and subsequent brain function are highly sensitive to genetic mutations, which can result in severe neurodevelopmental malformations. Alterations in PTEN signaling cause a spectrum of developmental malformations and neurological diseases including epilepsy.
