Primary hand motor representation areas in healthy children, preadolescents, adolescents, and adults
2020
NeuroImage
The development of the organization of the motor representation areas in children and adolescents is not well-known. ...
Similarly, there was less overlap between hand and forearm muscles representations in children compared to adults (p<0.001). ...
The funding sources had no involvement in the study design; in the collection, analysis, and interpretation of data; in the writing of the report; and in the decision to submit the article for publication ...

Training-Induced Neural Plasticity in Youth: A Systematic Review of Structural and Functional MRI Studies
2021
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience
Here, we systematically review MRI-based evidence of training-induced neural plasticity in children and adolescents. A total of 71 articles were included in the review. ...
Significant changes in brain activation, structure, microstructure, and structural and functional connectivity were reported with different types of trainings in the majority (87%) of the studies. ...
AUTHOR CONTRIBUTIONS OT and RG formulated the research question. OT conducted literature search and data extraction, and RG supervised this process. OT and RG wrote and revised the manuscript. ...

The relationship between white matter microstructure, cardiovascular fitness, gross motor skills, and neurocognitive functioning in children
2021
Journal of Neuroscience Research
This study investigates the role of white matter microstructure in the relationship of both cardiovascular fitness and gross motor skills with neurocognitive functioning in healthy children. ...
Recent evidence indicates that both cardiovascular fitness and gross motor skill performance are related to enhanced neurocognitive functioning in children by influencing brain structure and functioning ...
However, the available studies show that higher cardiovascular fitness is related to greater FA in healthy preadolescent children (Chaddock-Heyman et al., 2014) and greater FA and lower AD and RD in ...
