Fig. 1: Very preterm versus full-term brain growth from term-equivalent to 7 years.
From: Tracking regional brain growth up to age 13 in children born term and very preterm
a Before and b after adjusting for total brain tissue volume. Note: Group-by-time regression coefficients from linear mixed effects models (β) in blue refer to negative associations (slower growth in the very preterm compared with the full-term group) and in red refer to positive associations (faster growth in the very preterm compared with the full-term group), with darker coloured regression coefficients indicating stronger associations; Interaction p values are false discovery rate corrected and darker coloured p values indicate stronger significance; Boxes in the top right corner of the figures represent global brain volumes. A = anterior, P = posterior, LH = left hemisphere, RH = right hemisphere, csf = cerebrospinal fluid, gm = grey matter, wm = white matter, BSTS = banks of superior temporal sulcus, CAC = caudal anterior cingulate, CMF = caudal middle frontal, FUS = fusiform, INFP = inferior parietal, INS = insula, ISTC = isthmus cingulate, LORB = lateral orbitofrontal, LIN = lingual, MORB = medial orbitofrontal, MT = middle temporal, POPE = pars opercularis, PORB = pars orbitalis, PTRI = pars triangularis, PSTS = postcentral, PC = posterior cingulate, PREC = precentral, RAC = rostral anterior cingulate, SP = superior parietal, ST = superior temporal, SMAR = supramarginal.
