Air Pollution Effects On Fetal Brain Development: Higher exposure to black carbon was also linked with a reduction in the depth of a groove in the brain called the lateral sulcus, which the ...

Brain development in the womb is affected by the mother’s level of exposure to air pollution, researchers have found, ...

Additionally, higher exposure to black carbon correlated with reduced depth of the lateral sulcus, a major brain groove, suggesting possible delays in brain maturation.

Fetuses more exposed to certain air pollutants show changes in the size of specific brain structures, particularly during the ...

Higher exposure to black carbon was also linked with a reduction in the depth of a groove in the brain called the lateral sulcus, which the researchers said might suggest less maturation of the brain.

The study results also showed an association between higher exposure to black carbon and a reduction in the depth of the lateral sulcus (also known as the Sylvian fissure), a deep groove that runs ...

Higher exposure to black carbon was also linked with a reduction in the depth of a groove in the brain called the lateral sulcus, which the researchers said might suggest less maturation of the brain.

The small grooves on the surface of our brain may play a key role in our reasoning. A recent study reveals that their depth ...

These included enlarged lateral ventricles and cisterna magna. Both are cavities filled with cerebrospinal fluid. The cerebellar vermis, which supports balance and coordination, also appeared wider ...
