Long-term Depression

2.6K
Long-term depression, or LTD, is one of the ways by which synaptic plasticity—changes in the strength of chemical synapses—can occur in the brain. LTD is the process of synaptic weakening that occurs over time between pre and postsynaptic neuronal connections. The synaptic weakening of LTD works in opposition to synaptic strengthening by long-term potentiation (LTP) and together are the main mechanisms that underlie learning and memory.

Neurulation

40.1K
Neurulation is the embryological process which forms the precursors of the central nervous system and occurs after gastrulation has established the three primary cell layers of the embryo: ectoderm, mesoderm, and endoderm. In humans, the majority of this system is formed via primary neurulation, in which the central portion of the ectoderm—originally appearing as a flat sheet of cells—folds upwards and inwards, sealing off to form a hollow neural tube. As development proceeds, the...

Summary

Preterm birth, affecting 9.6% of global births, leads to significant neurodevelopmental disorders and mortality. Despite increased survival rates, preterm infants face persistent complications into adolescence.

Area of Science:

  • Neonatal Health
  • Developmental Pediatrics
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Preterm birth is a significant global health issue, accounting for approximately 9.6% of all births worldwide.
  • It is a leading cause of mortality and a major contributor to neurodevelopmental disorders in infants.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the literature on neurodevelopmental disorders associated with preterm birth.
  • To understand the long-term outcomes for preterm infants.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature search was conducted across major scientific databases including PubMed, EMBASE, ISI, Scopus, Google Scholar, Iranmedex, and SID.
  • Keywords related to preterm birth and neurodevelopmental outcomes were used to identify relevant studies.

Main Results:

  • Key neurodevelopmental disorders linked to prematurity include cerebral palsy (especially spastic diplegia), intellectual disability, retinopathy of prematurity, and hearing impairments.
  • Increased survival rates for preterm infants have not correlated with a reduction in these complications.

Conclusions:

  • The survival of preterm infants is often accompanied by significant neurodevelopmental challenges.
  • Evidence indicates sustained adverse outcomes persisting into school age and adolescence for individuals born preterm.
