Previous studies suggested that heart rate (HR) time series may be more appropriately analyzed by nonlinear techniques because of the nature these data. In this study, we quantified complexity HR series, using fractal dimension, a previously described measure developed to study axonal growth, which quantifies space-filling propensity and convolutedness waveform, compared results with another recently used measure, approximate entropy. Fractal dimension entropy (unfiltered) correlate highly...

Abstract Maternal nutritional status during pregnancy impacts fetal brain development. Vitamin B12 plays a vital role in neuronal However, findings from studies on the association between maternal and child cognitive functions have been inconsistent. We performed randomized, placebo‐controlled clinical trial of oral supplementation (50 µg) beginning at <14 weeks gestation through 6‐week post‐partum. In present study, we report effects development infants 9 months age Bayley Scales Infant...
