Abstract:This study used structural magnetic resonance imaging to analyze changes in the gray matter volume (GMV) of preterm‐born (PTB) and term‐born (TB) children to help elucidate the influence of magnesium sulfate treatment on the nervous system development. A total of 51 subjects were recruited, including 28 PTB and 23 TB children. The intelligence scale and MRI scan were completed at the corrected age of 10 to 16 years. A whole‐brain voxel‐wise analysis tested the main effect of the status (PTB without magnesium, … Show more
