Brain tissue microstructure in a prospective, longitudinal, population‐based cohort of preterm and term‐born young adults
Abnormalities in brain tissue microstructure associated with preterm birth persist into young adulthood and likely represent disordered myelination and accompanying axonal pathology. These disturbances are associated with a higher likelihood of developing a psychiatric disorder by young adulthood. Brain tissue disturbances were accentuated in those born at younger gestational ages and in those with a history of perinatal complications associated with infection and inflammation.
