To identify trajectories of peer relationships in very preterm and term-born individuals from 6 to 26 years of age and test early-life predictors of these trajectories.
…To study self-reported well-being and self-esteem among adolescents born very preterm (VPT; <32 wk of gestation) and moderate to late preterm (MLPT; 32–36 wk of gestation) compared with those born full-term (FT) in an individual participant data (IPD) meta-analysis.
…Recent evidence suggests increased metabolic and physiologic aging rates in premature-born adults. While the lasting consequences of premature birth on human brain development are known, its impact on brain aging remains unclear.

Premature-born infants have impaired amygdala structure, presumably due to increased stress levels of premature birth mediated by the amygdala.
…This study examined whether physical activity is associated with better mental health and well-being among very preterm (≤32 weeks) and term born (≥37 weeks) adolescents alike or whether the associations are stronger in either of the groups.
…Objective To determine whether improvements in school age outcomes had occurred between two cohorts of births at 22–25 weeks of gestation to women residents in England in 1995 and 2006.
…As part of this Webinar series Professor Dieter Wolke will be talking about ‘Infant Regulatory Problems and Development Trajectories’ on Friday 8th January 2021 at 21:00 hrs (GMT) Further details available:https://www.newbornbehaviorinternational.org/leaders-in-the-field-webinar
People differ in their sleep timings that are often referred to as a chronotype and can be operationalized as mid-sleep (midpoint between sleep onset and wake-up). The aims of the present studies were to examine intraindividual variability and longer-term temporal stability of mid-sleep on free and workdays, while also considering the effect of age.
…Obstetric factors have long been recognised as risk factors for the later development of poor mental health.
