Abstract
This study aimed to review the prevalence of developmental coordination disorder (DCD) in individuals born preterm and systematically explore this prevalence according to gestational age and different assessment cut-offs and compare it to full-term peers. The eligibility criteria were observational and experimental studies reporting the prevalence of DCD in preterm individuals. A systematic search was performed in databases from inception until March 2022. Two independent reviewers performed the selection. Study quality assessment was performed using the checklists from Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI). Data analysis was performed on Excel and Review Manager Software 5.4. Among the 1774 studies identified, 32 matched the eligibility criteria. The pooled estimate rate of the DCD rate in preterm was 21% (95% confidence interval [CI] 17.8-24.3). The estimate rates were higher as gestational age decreased, and preterm children are two times more likely to have DCD than their full-term peers risk ratio (RR) 2.2 (95% CI 1.77-2.79). The limitation was high heterogeneity between studies; the assessment tools, cut-off points and age at assessment were diverse. This study provided evidence that preterm children are at higher risk for DCD than full-term children, and the risks increased as gestational age decreased.

Abstract
Premature birth is a worldwide public health priority. One in ten children is born before 37 weeks of gestational age and, in developed countries, survival rates without major neonatal morbidity are increasing. Although severe sequelae associated with these births have decreased, their neurobehavioral difficulties, often associated in multiple fields, remain stable but still widespread. These neurobehavioral difficulties hamper the normal development of academic achievements and societal integration and intensify the children's needs for rehabilitation during their preschool and academic years. Severe sequelae increase when gestational age decreases. This is even truer if the socio-cultural background is impeded by low income, education and language skills as compared with defined averages. However, moderate and/or minor neurocognitive and/or behavioral difficulties are almost identical for a moderate or a late preterm birth. Obtaining a better clinical description of neurobehavioral characteristics of those pretermly born, once they reach preschool age, is essential to detect behavioral issues as well as early specific cognitive difficulties (working memory, planning, inhibition, language expression and reception, attention and fine motor skills, etc.). Such information would provide a better understanding of the executive functions' role in brain connectivity, neurodevelopment and neuroanatomical correlation with premature encephalopathy.

Gire C, Berbis J, Dequin M, Marret S, Muller JB, Saliba E, Tosello B. A correlation between Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (1-H MRS) and the neurodevelopment of two-year-olds born preterm in an EPIRMEX cohort study. Front Pediatr 2022; 10:936130. [PMID: 36061395 PMCID: PMC9437452 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2022.936130] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/18/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Preterm infants are at risk of neurodevelopmental impairments. At present, proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1H-MRS) is currently used to evaluate brain metabolites in asphyxiated term infants. The purpose of this study was to identify in the preterm EPIRMEX cohort any correlations between (1H-MRS) metabolites ratio at term equivalent age (TEA) and neurodevelopmental outcomes at 2 years. METHODS Our study included EPIRMEX eligible patients who were very preterm infants (gestational age at birth ≤32 weeks) and who underwent a brain MRI at TEA and 1H-MRS using a monovoxel technique. The volumes of interest (VOI) were periventricular white matter posterior area and basal ganglia. The ratio of N Acetyl Aspartate (NAA) to Cho (Choline), NAA to Cr (creatine), Cho to Cr, and Lac (Lactate) to Cr were measured. Neurodevelopment was assessed at 24 months TEA with ASQ (Ages and Stages Questionnaire). RESULTS A total of 69 very preterm infants had a 1H-MRS at TEA. In white matter there was a significant correlation between a reduction in the NAA/Cho ratio and a total ASQ and/or abnormal communication score, and an increase in the Lac/Cr ratio and an abnormality of fine motor skills. In the gray nuclei there was a trend correlation between the reduction in the NAA/Cho ratio and sociability disorders; and the increase in the Lac/Cr ratio and an anomaly in problem-solving. CONCLUSIONS Using NAA as a biomarker, the vulnerability of immature oligodendrocytes in preterm children at TEA was correlated to neurodevelopment at 2 years. Similarly, the presence of lactate at TEA was associated with abnormal neurodevelopment at 2 years in the preterm brain.
