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

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, ...

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 ...

Research from ISGlobal reveals that exposure to pollutants like NO₂, PM2.5, and black carbon during pregnancy can affect fetal brain development. Changes were noted in brain structures like the ...

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 ...

The lateral orbital gyrus is situated lateral to the lateral orbital sulcus and join the pars orbitalis of the inferior frontal gyrus. The posterior orbital gyrus is situated posterior to the ...

A study from UC Berkeley reveals that the depths of tiny grooves on the brain’s surface, known as tertiary sulci, are linked to increased connectivity between the lateral prefrontal and parietal ...

That work showed that a specific sulcus, the mid-fusiform sulcus, varied in length from as small as 3 millimeters to as long as 7 centimeters in any given person.

Among the 82 hemispheres, the central sulcus did not reach the posterior ramus of the lateral sulcus in 68 specimens, allowing the subcentral gyrus to be visualized in the lateral aspect of the ...
