Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: VPT children (GA

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Lack of informed consent of parents (including parental refusal or unable to explain because of language barrier) Congenital or acquired abnormalities of the central nervous system, other than those caused by preterm birth Any medical condition, device or implant that pauses a safety issue for MRI examination (exclusion for MRI investigation) Children in whom a proper preparation for the MRI or EEG procedure is not possible because of severe motor, behavioural or cognitive handicaps or severe anxiety (both for MRI and EEG examination)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Relationship between common structural neonatal MRI abnormalities (white matter injury and cerebellar injury) and neurodevelopmental outcome on different domains (i.e. neuromotor outcome, cognitive outcome, neuropsychological outcome, executive functions and behavioural outcome) 9-10 years after preterm birth. Relationship between neonatal MRI findings and brain development (i.e. brain tissue growth and markers of brain maturation ) and connectivity (EEG and fMRI) 10 years after preterm birth.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Relationship between brain development and connectivity 9-10 years after preterm birth and motor, cognitive, neuropsychological, executive and behavioural functioning.

Countries
