Early Pain Exposure Influences Functional Brain Connectivity in Very Preterm Neonates

BackgroundEarly exposure to nociceptive events may cause brain structural alterations in preterm neonates, with long-lasting consequences on neurodevelopmental outcome. Little is known on the extent to which early pain may affect brain connectivity. We aim to evaluate brain functional connectivity c...
