Abstract

Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) stands poised to revolutionize our understanding of auditory detection, speech perception, and language development in infants. In this study, we conducted a meticulous integrative review across Medline, Scopus, and LILACS databases, targeting investigations utilizing fNIRS to explore language-related features and cortical activation during auditory stimuli in typical infants. We included studies that used the NIRS technique to study language and cortical activation in response to auditory stimuli in typical infants between 0 and 3 years old. We used the ROBINS-I tool to assess the quality and the risk of bias in the studies. Our analysis, encompassing 66 manuscripts, is presented in standardized tables for streamlined data extraction. We meticulously correlated findings with children's developmental stages, delineating crucial insights into brain development and its intricate interplay with language outcomes. Although most studies have a high risk for overall bias, especially due to the high loss of data in NIRS studies, the low risk in the other domains is predominant and homogeneous among the studies. Highlighted are the unique advantages of fNIRS for pediatric studies, underscored by its innate suitability for use in children. This review accentuates fNIRS' capacity to elucidate the neural correlates of language processing and the sequential steps of language acquisition. From birth, infants exhibit abilities that lay the foundation for language development. The progression from diffuse to specific neural activation patterns is extremely influenced by exposure to languages, social interaction, and prosodic features and, reflects the maturation of brain networks involved in language processing. In conclusion, fNIRS emerges as an indispensable functional imaging modality, providing insights into the temporal dynamics of language acquisition and associated developmental milestones. This synthesis presents the pivotal role of fNIRS in advancing our comprehension of early language development and paves the way for future research endeavors in this domain.

功能性近红外光谱与语言发展:综合综述。
功能性近红外光谱(fNIRS)有望彻底改变我们对婴儿听觉检测、语言感知和语言发育的认识。在本研究中,我们在 Medline、Scopus 和 LILACS 数据库中进行了细致的综合综述,目标是利用 fNIRS 探索典型婴儿听觉刺激时的语言相关特征和皮层激活。我们收录了使用近红外光谱技术研究0-3岁典型婴儿的语言和听觉刺激时大脑皮层激活情况的研究。我们使用 ROBINS-I 工具来评估研究的质量和偏倚风险。我们的分析包括 66 篇手稿,并以标准化表格的形式呈现,以简化数据提取。我们将研究结果与儿童的发育阶段进行了细致的关联,从而勾勒出大脑发育及其与语言结果之间错综复杂的相互作用的重要线索。虽然大多数研究的总体偏倚风险较高,特别是由于近红外光谱研究的数据丢失率较高,但其他领域的低风险在各研究中占主导地位,且具有同质性。在儿科研究中,fNIRS 具有独特的优势,特别是它天生适合用于儿童。本综述强调了 fNIRS 在阐明语言处理的神经相关性和语言习得的顺序步骤方面的能力。婴儿从出生起就表现出为语言发展奠定基础的能力。神经激活模式从弥散到特异的过程受到接触语言、社会互动和前音特征的极大影响,反映了参与语言处理的大脑网络的成熟过程。总之,fNIRS 是一种不可或缺的功能成像模式,能让人们深入了解语言习得的时间动态和相关的发育里程碑。本综述介绍了 fNIRS 在促进我们理解早期语言发展方面的关键作用,并为该领域未来的研究工作铺平了道路。

期刊介绍: International Journal of Developmental Neuroscience publishes original research articles and critical review papers on all fundamental and clinical aspects of nervous system development, renewal and regeneration, as well as on the effects of genetic and environmental perturbations of brain development and homeostasis leading to neurodevelopmental disorders and neurological conditions. Studies describing the involvement of stem cells in nervous system maintenance and disease (including brain tumours), stem cell-based approaches for the investigation of neurodegenerative diseases, roles of neuroinflammation in development and disease, and neuroevolution are also encouraged. Investigations using molecular, cellular, physiological, genetic and epigenetic approaches in model systems ranging from simple invertebrates to human iPSC-based 2D and 3D models are encouraged, as are studies using experimental models that provide behavioural or evolutionary insights. The journal also publishes Special Issues dealing with topics at the cutting edge of research edited by Guest Editors appointed by the Editor in Chief. A major aim of the journal is to facilitate the transfer of fundamental studies of nervous system development, maintenance, and disease to clinical applications. The journal thus intends to disseminate valuable information for both biologists and physicians. International Journal of Developmental Neuroscience is owned and supported by The International Society for Developmental Neuroscience (ISDN), an organization of scientists interested in advancing developmental neuroscience research in the broadest sense.
