Commentary: Cerebral Lateralization is Protective in the Very Prematurely Born
The cerebral hemispheres of the human brain have unique functional properties of information processing; an asymmetry that captures cerebral lateralization. Among cognitive functions, language is one of the most lateralized with left-sided dominance for the production and processing of language. Previous work has shown that the foundation of language circuitry emerges in the late second and thi...
متن کاملBrain Injury and Cerebral Lateralization
Life span studies1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 have shown that the population percentage of left-handers diminishes steadily, so that they are drastically underrepresented in the oldest age groups. This population trend suggests the reduced longevity of left-handers9. Coren and Halpern (1991) suggest that some of the elevated risk for left-handers is apparently due to environmental factors that elevate their...
متن کاملLaterality in Prematurely -born Children1
The study examined the relationship between perinatal stress and decreased right handedness and decreased left cerebral dominance for speech with 215 children born prematurely, followed from birth, and tested at age 5. Results indicated that neither hand preference nor hand performance correlated with degree of perinatal stress and that eye preference was associated with perinatal stress though...
متن کاملPain sensitivity in prematurely born adolescents.
BACKGROUND Several studies reported that preterm infants were found to be hypersensitive to pain. However, longitudinal and quantitative assessments of subsequent pain thresholds in adolescence are scarce. OBJECTIVE To assess the tenderness threshold in adolescents born prematurely compared with matched children born at full term. DESIGN Case-control study. SETTING Children in the communi...
متن کاملHib vaccination in infants born prematurely.
AIMS To document the immunogenicity and persistence of antibody to polyribosyl-ribitol phosphate (PRP) as well as the clinical protection against invasive Haemophilus influenzae type b (Hib) disease in premature infants immunised at the routine schedule. METHODS Blood was obtained at 2, 5, 12, and 64 months of age from a cohort of prematurely born infants (<or=32 weeks gestation). Anti-PRP an...
