<h4>Background</h4>Retinal microvessels can be visualized non-invasively and mirror the status of the cerebral microvasculature.<h4>Aims</h4>To investigate whether in young children born prematurely or at term cognitive performance is related to retinal microvascular traits.<h4>Study design, subjects</h4>In 93 prematurely born infants (birth weight < 1000 g) and 87 controls born at term, we measured head circumference (HC) and determined intelligence quotient (IQ) by combining matrix reasoning a  ...[more]
