Functional neuroanatomy of executive function after neonatal brain injury in adults who were born very preterm. by Anastasia K Kalpakidou, Matthew P G Allin, Muriel Walshe, Vincent Giampietro, Philip K McGuire, Larry Rifkin, Robin M Murray, Chiara Nosarti

“…Here we addressed this question by investigating with functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) the haemodynamic response during executive-type processing using a phonological verbal fluency and a working memory task in VPT-born young adults who had experienced differing degrees of neonatal brain injury. 12 VPT individuals with a history of periventricular haemorrhage and ventricular dilatation (PVH+VD), 17 VPT individuals with a history of uncomplicated periventricular haemorrhage (UPVH), 13 VPT individuals with no history of neonatal brain injury and 17 controls received an MRI scan whilst completing a verbal fluency task with two cognitive loads ('easy' and 'hard' letters). …”
