Data ID 117
Factor the growth rate of the Heschl’s gyrus
Description An explorative, whole-brain, thresholdfree cluster enhancement analysis revealed strong correlation between the growth rate of the Heschl’s gyrus, anterior planum temporale and language score at 12 months of age, corrected for demographic variables.

Conclusion Our longitudinal cohort study provides evidence for the early importance of left-dominant perisylvian regions in auditory and language development before direct postnatal exposure to native language. In congenital heart disease patients, the perioperative period results in a critical variability of brain growth rate in this region, which is a reliable neural correlate of language development at 1 year of age.
