Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles ameliorate inflammation-induced preterm brain injury

Yohan Van de Looij

Objective Preterm brain injury is a major cause of disability in later life, and may result in motor, cognitive and behavioural impairment for which no treatment is currently available. The aetiology is considered as multifactorial, and one underlying key ...

Structural Brain Connectivity in School-Age Preterm Infants Provides Evidence for Impaired Networks Relevant for Higher Order Cognitive Skills and Social Cognition

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Elda Fischi Gomez, Patric Hagmann, Djalel Eddine Meskaldji, François Lazeyras

Extreme prematurity and pregnancy conditions leading to intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) affect thousands of newborns every year and increase their risk for poor higher order cognitive and social skills at school age. However, little is known about t ...

Differences between magnitudes and health impacts of BC emissions across the United States using 12 km scale seasonal source apportionment

Athanasios Nenes

Recent assessments have analyzed the health impacts of PM2.5 from emissions from different locations and sectors using simplified or reduced-form air quality models. Here we present an alternative approach using the adjoint of the Community Mult ...

Evaluation of automatic neonatal brain segmentation algorithms: The NeoBrainS12 challenge

Elda Fischi Gomez, Laura Ioana Gui

A number of algorithms for brain segmentation in preterm born infants have been published, but a reliable comparison of their performance is lacking. The NeoBrainS12 study (http://neobrains12.isi.uu.nl), providing three different image sets of preterm born ...

Lactoferrin during lactation protects the immature hypoxic-ischemic rat brain

Yohan Van de Looij

Objective Lactoferrin (Lf) is an iron-binding glycoprotein secreted in maternal milk presenting anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It shows efficient absorption into the brain from nutritional source. Brain injury frequently resulting from cereb ...

High-field diffusion tensor imaging characterization of cerebral white matter injury in lipopolysaccharide-exposed fetal sheep

Yohan Van de Looij, François Lazeyras

BACKGROUND: In gyrencephalic species such as sheep, precise anatomical and microstructural characterization of the consequences of fetal inflammation remains scarce. The goal of this study was to characterize changes in white matter (WM) structure using ad ...

Anatomy-driven design of a prototype video laryngoscope for extremely low birth weight infants

Eric Tremblay

Extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants frequently require endotracheal intubation for assisted ventilation or as a route for administration of drugs or exogenous surfactant. In adults and less premature infants, the risks of this intubation can be great ...

Structural Brain Network Reorganization and Social Cognition Related to Adverse Perinatal Condition from Infancy to Early Adolescence

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Elda Fischi Gomez

Adverse conditions during fetal life have been associated to both structural and functional changes in neurodevelopment from the neonatal period to adolescence. In this study, connectomics was used to assess the evolution of brain networks from infancy to ...
