Abstract
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common cause of major congenital anomalies in the world. Disruptions to brain development in this population may impact cognitive outcomes. As individuals with CHD age, understanding of long-term neurocognitive and brain outcomes is essential. Synthesis of the current literature of brain-behavior relationships in adolescents and young adults with CHD is needed to understand long-term outcomes and identify literature gaps. This systematic review summarizes and integrates the current literature on the relationship between structural neuroimaging and neurocognitive outcomes in adolescents and young adults with CHD. Included papers were published through August 2, 2021. Searches were conducted on Pubmed and APA PsycInfo. Studies were eligible for inclusion if they evaluated adolescents or young adults (ages 10-35) with CHD, and without genetic comorbidity. Studies explored relationships among structural neuroimaging and neurocognitive outcomes, were in English, and were an empirical research study. A total of 22 papers were included in the current review. Data from each study was extracted and included in a table for comparison along with a systematic assessment of study quality. Results suggest worse brain outcomes (i.e., brain abnormality, reduced volume, lower fractional anisotropy, and brain topology) are related to poorer performance in neuropsychological domains of intelligence, memory, and executive functioning. Consistently, poorer memory performance was related to lower hippocampal and temporal region volumes. Statistically significant brain-behavior relationships in adolescents and young adults with CHD are generally observed across studies but there is a lack of consistency in investigated neuropsychological constructs and brain regions to be able to make specific conclusions. Further research with adult samples of CHD is needed to better understand the long-term impacts of early neurological insult.
期刊介绍：
Neuropsychology Review is a quarterly, refereed publication devoted to integrative review papers on substantive content areas in neuropsychology, with particular focus on populations with endogenous or acquired conditions affecting brain and function and on translational research providing a mechanistic understanding of clinical problems. Publication of new data is not the purview of the journal. Articles are written by international specialists in the field, discussing such complex issues as distinctive functional features of central nervous system disease and injury; challenges in early diagnosis; the impact of genes and environment on function; risk factors for functional impairment; treatment efficacy of neuropsychological rehabilitation; the role of neuroimaging, neuroelectrophysiology, and other neurometric modalities in explicating function; clinical trial design; neuropsychological function and its substrates characteristic of normal development and aging; and neuropsychological dysfunction and its substrates in neurological, psychiatric, and medical conditions. The journal''s broad perspective is supported by an outstanding, multidisciplinary editorial review board guided by the aim to provide students and professionals, clinicians and researchers with scholarly articles that critically and objectively summarize and synthesize the strengths and weaknesses in the literature and propose novel hypotheses, methods of analysis, and links to other fields.
