Petrie Thomas J, Whitfield M, Oberlander T, Synnes A, Grunau R
Dev Psychobiol . 2012 Apr; 54(4):383-400. PMID: 22487941
The majority of children who are born very preterm escape major impairment, yet more subtle cognitive and attention problems are very common in this population. Previous research has linked infant...

Pediatr Res . 2011 May; 70(2):171-5. PMID: 21544009
Resting cortical activity is characterized by a distinct spectral peak in the alpha frequency range. Slowing of this oscillatory peak toward the upper theta-band has been associated with a variety...

Brummelte S, Grunau R, Synnes A, Whitfield M, Petrie-Thomas J
Early Hum Dev . 2011 Feb; 87(4):273-80. PMID: 21334150
Background: Higher parenting stress in mothers of children born very preterm may be in part a response to poorer neurobehavioral development, reflecting realistic concerns in addition to adaptation to the...

Doesburg S, Ribary U, Herdman A, Cheung T, Moiseev A, Weinberg H, et al.
IFMBE Proc . 2011 Feb; 29(9):250-253. PMID: 21331353
Children born very preterm, even with broadly normal IQ, commonly show selective difficulties in visuospatial processing and executive functioning. Very little, however, is known what alterations in cortical processing underlie...

Doesburg S, Ribary U, Herdman A, Miller S, Poskitt K, Moiseev A, et al.
Neuroimage . 2010 Oct; 54(3):2330-9. PMID: 20974268
Children born very preterm, even when intelligence is broadly normal, often experience selective difficulties in executive function and visual-spatial processing. Development of structural cortical connectivity is known to be altered...

Synnes A, Anson S, Arkesteijn A, Butt A, Grunau R, Rogers M, et al.
J Pediatr . 2010 Aug; 157(6):989-994.e1. PMID: 20674931

Clin J Pain . 2010 Jul; 26(8):698-704. PMID: 20664338
Objective: Pain response may be altered in infants born very preterm owing to repeated exposure to procedures in the neonatal intensive care unit. Findings have been inconsistent in studies of...

Open Med . 2010 Jan; 1(2):e74-88. PMID: 20101298
Background: Fetal growth restriction is associated with metabolic derangements in the newborn, impaired functioning in childhood and chronic diseases in adulthood. Differences between ethnic groups with respect to fetal growth...

Grunau R, Whitfield M, Petrie-Thomas J, Synnes A, Cepeda I, Keidar A, et al.
Pain . 2009 Mar; 143(1-2):138-46. PMID: 19307058
Procedural pain in the neonatal intensive care unit triggers a cascade of physiological, behavioral and hormonal disruptions which may contribute to altered neurodevelopment in infants born very preterm, who undergo...

Whitfield M, Grunau R
Paediatr Child Health . 2008 Nov; 11(5):275-7. PMID: 19030288
Adolescence constitutes a major transition for extremely low birth weight (ELBW) teenagers. Recent studies of ELBW teenagers born in the 1980s have provided information about the growth and developmental characteristics...
