In recent years, exploration of the developing brain has become a major focus for
researchers and clinicians in an attempt to understand what allows children to acquire …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a safe method to examine human brain. However, a
typical MR scan is very sensitive to motion, and it requires the subject to lie still during the …

Only a small number of studies have assessed structural differences between the two
hemispheres during childhood and adolescence. However, the existing findings lack …

Asymmetry characterizes the brain in both structure and function. Anatomical asymmetries
explain only a fraction of functional variability in lateralization, with structural and functional …

Importance Preterm birth and socioeconomic status (SES) are associated with brain
structure in childhood, but the relative contributions of each during the neonatal period are …

Exposures to prenatal maternal depressive symptoms (PMDS) may lead to
neurodevelopmental changes in the offspring in a sex‐dependent way. Although a …

Our goal was to determine the influence of sex, age and the head/brain size on the
compartmental brain volumes in the radiologically verified healthy population (96 subjects; …

The human brain demonstrates anatomical and functional lateralization/asymmetry between
the left and right hemispheres, and such asymmetry is known to start from the early age of …

Maternal psychological distress during pregnancy (PPD) 1 has been associated with
changes in offspring amygdalar and hippocampal volumes. Studies on child amygdalae …

Background Sex differences in human brain anatomy have been well-documented, though
remain significantly underexplored during early development. The neonatal period is a …
