Prediction of neurodevelopmental impairment at four years from brain ultrasound appearance of very preterm infants.

abstract：:Children with infantile autism sometimes show hyperesthesia or hypoesthesia to touch, pain, and/or temperature. To clarify the pathophysiology, we examined short-latency somatosensory evoked potentials (S-SEPs), elicited by median nerve stimulation, in 24 children with infantile autism (17 males, seven females; age ra...
