Diffusion tensor imaging in preterm infants with punctate white matter lesions.

abstract：BACKGROUND:The associations between prenatal exposure to endocrine disruptive chemicals (EDCs) and fetal growth are inconsistent, and few studies have considered small-for-gestational-age (SGA) birth as an outcome. Our current study of Scandinavian parous women aimed to address these inconsistencies and gaps in the lit...
