The paper examines how maternal depressive symptoms and hair cortisol concentration during pregnancy predict neonatal corpus callosum integrity using MRI and DTI data.

This study finds a positive association between maternal pre-pregnancy BMI and infant left caudate nucleus mean diffusivity, suggesting in utero exposure to maternal adiposity may impact brain development.

This study examines the relationship between neonatal amygdala microstructure and attention to emotional faces, finding a negative association between amygdala mean diffusivity and disengagement from fearful faces.

The paper evaluates the effect of diffusion encoding directions on DTI scalar estimates in neonates using TBSS analysis and finds negligible differences with 24 or more directions.

The paper finds a negative association between infant left amygdala volume and fecal microbiota alpha diversity in early life.

This study examines the long-term effects of prenatal synthetic glucocorticoid exposure on adolescent brain structure and function using MRI, finding no structural differences but altered functional connectivity.

The paper identifies DNA methylation differences in peripheral blood of Alzheimer’s disease discordant twin pairs, linking these to brain gene expression and neuronal functions.
