Sample details

Measuring Brain Activity of School Age Children is an observational study comparing two groups of children to assess whether differences in birth events and oxygen levels during the newborn period affected brain structure and function in dopaminergic pathways and associated cortical regions. The study group consisted of 11 children drawn from a cohort maintained by the investigators, while healthy control children were recruited through various methods including distributing study flyers to parents of prematurely born cohort children and posting them in pediatric clinics. The resulting cohort consisted of 21 children, 11 within the study group, and 10 controls.
