AIM: To elucidate neurobiological changes underlying motor impairments in adolescents born extremely preterm (gestation <28wks) and/or with extremely low birthweight (ELBW, <1000g), our aims were the following: (1) to compare corticospinal tract (CST) microstructure and primary motor cortex (M1) volume, area, and thickness between extremely preterm/ELBW adolescents and a comparison group with normal birthweight (>2499g); (2) to compare CST microstructure and M1 volume, area, and thickness between extremely preterm/ELBW adolescents with cerebral palsy (CP), motor impairment without CP, and no motor impairment; and (3) to investigate associations between CST microstructure and M1 measures.
METHOD: This study used diffusion and structural magnetic resonance imaging to examine the CST and M1 in a geographical cohort of 191 extremely preterm/ELBW adolescents (mean age 18y 2.4mo [SD 9.6mo]; 87 males, 104 females) and 141 adolescents in the comparison group (mean age 18y 1.2mo [SD 9.6mo]; 59 males, 82 females).
RESULTS: Extremely preterm/ELBW adolescents had higher CST axial, radial, and mean diffusivities and lower M1 thickness than the comparison group. Extremely preterm/ELBW adolescents with CP had higher CST diffusivities than non-motor-impaired extremely preterm/ELBW adolescents. CST diffusivities correlated with M1 volume and area.
INTERPRETATION: Extremely preterm/ELBW adolescents have altered CST microstructure, which is associated with CP. Furthermore, the results elucidate how CST and M1 alterations interrelate to potentially influence motor function in extremely preterm/ELBW adolescents.
