This study examined the maturation of cortical auditory event-related potentials (ERPs) from birth until 12 months of age. In the 15 infants studied, all ERP peaks observable at 12 months of age, the… (More)
Research on event-related potential (ERP) correlates of auditory deviance-detection in newborns provided inconsistent results; temporal and topographic ERP characteristics differed widely across… (More)
IMPORTANCE
Active perinatal care increases survival of extremely preterm infants; however, improved survival might be associated with increased disability among survivors.

The perceptual world of neonates is usually regarded as not yet being fully organized in terms of objects in the same way as it is for adults. Using a recently developed method based on electric… (More)
OBJECTIVES
The aims of this prospective nationwide investigation were to establish the birth rate, mortality, and morbidity of extremely low birth weight (ELBW) infants in Finland in 1996-1997, and… (More)
Background:Weight gain and associated medical morbidity offset the reduction of extrapyramidal side effects associated with atypical antipsychotics. Efforts to control weight in antipsychotic-treated… (More)
Upon reperfusion of ischemic tissues, reactive oxygen metabolites are generated and are responsible for much of the organ damage. Experimental studies have revealed two main sources of these… (More)
Behavioral research has produced little evidence on sound feature discrimination in neonates. Sensory processes underlying sound perception can be studied using the mismatch negativity (MMN)… (More)
