View article: Maternal and child immune profiles are associated with neurometabolite measures of early-life neuroinflammation in children who are HIV-exposed and uninfected: a South African birth cohort
Maternal and child immune profiles are associated with neurometabolite measures of early-life neuroinflammation in children who are HIV-exposed and uninfected: a South African birth cohort Open
Background Children who are HIV-exposed and uninfected (HEU) are at risk of neurodevelopmental delays, potentially via prenatal immune dysregulation. We investigated whether maternal and child peripheral blood immune markers relate to earl…

The Effects of Prenatal Alcohol Exposure on Structural Brain Connectivity and Early Language Skills in a South African Birth Cohort Open
Prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) is associated with various neurological, behavioral and cognitive deficits, including reading and language. Previous studies have demonstrated altered white matter in children and adolescents with PAE and as…

Prenatal tobacco and alcohol exposure, white matter microstructure, and early language skills in toddlers from a South African birth cohort Open
Introduction Tobacco and alcohol are the two most common substances used during pregnancy, and both can disrupt neurodevelopment, resulting in cognitive and behavioral deficits including language difficulties. Previous studies show that ch…

Subcortical Brain Volumes and Neurocognitive Function in Children With Perinatal HIV Exposure: A Population-Based Cohort Study in South Africa Open
Background Children who are HIV-exposed and uninfected (HEU) are at risk for early neurodevelopmental impairment. Smaller basal ganglia nuclei have been reported in neonates who are HEU compared to HIV-unexposed (HU); however, neuroimaging…

Persistent Impact of Antenatal Maternal Anaemia on Child Brain Structure at 6-7 Years of Age: A South African Child Health Study Open
Background The study aim was to determine whether associations of antenatal maternal anaemia with smaller corpus callosum, putamen, and caudate nucleus volumes previously described in children at age 2–3 years persist to age 6-7 years in t…

Association of Maternal and Child Anemia With Brain Structure in Early Life in South Africa Open
Importance Anemia affects millions of pregnant women and their children worldwide, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Although anemia in pregnancy is a well-described risk factor for cognitive development, the association wi…

The impact of prenatal alcohol exposure on gray matter volume and cortical surface area of 2 to 3‐year‐old children in a South African birth cohort Open
Background There is a growing literature that demonstrates the effects of prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) on brain development in school‐aged children. Less is known, however, on how PAE impacts the brain early in life. We investigated the…

A Neurometabolic Pattern of Elevated Myo-Inositol in Children Who Are HIV-Exposed and Uninfected: A South African Birth Cohort Study Open
Introduction Exposure to maternal HIV in pregnancy may be a risk factor for impaired child neurodevelopment during the first years of life. Altered neurometabolites have been associated with HIV exposure in older children and may help expl…

Brain Network Connectivity from Matching Cortical Feature Densities Open
We present a new method for constructing structural inference brain networks from functional measures of cortical features. Instead of averaging vertex-wise cortical features, we propose the use of full functions of spatial densities of me…

The effects of racial group membership and cognitive load on empathy and helping behaviour Open
Research suggests that people feel more empathy for racial in-group compared to racial outgroup members, and in some circumstances, are more likely to help racial in- than out-group members. Furthermore, there is evidence that cognitive lo…
