Preterm Brain Injury, Antenatal Triggers, and Therapeutics: Timing Is Key

Research output: Contribution to journal(Systematic) Review articlepeer-review

Abstract

With a worldwide incidence of 15 million cases, preterm birth is a major contributor to neonatal mortality and morbidity, and concomitant social and economic burden Preterm infants are predisposed to life-long neurological disorders due to the immaturity of the brain. The risks are inversely proportional to maturity at birth. In the majority of extremely preterm infants (
