Functional brain connectivity in early adolescence after hypothermia-treated neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy

Abstract

Aim Neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) injures the infant brain during the basic formation of the developing functional connectome. This study aimed to investigate long-term changes in the functional connectivity (FC) networks of the adolescent brain following neonatal HIE treated with therapeutic hypothermia (TH).
