Somatosensory prediction in the premature neonate brain

Résumé

Sensory prediction (SP) is at the core of early cognitive development. Impaired SP may be a key to understanding the emergence of neurodevelopmental disorders, however there is little data on how and when this skill emerges. We set out to provide evidence of SP in the brain of premature neonates in the fundamental sensory modality: touch. Using Diffuse Correlation Spectroscopy, we measured blood flow changes in the somatosensory cortex of premature neonates presented with a vibrotactile stimulation-omission sequence. When ISI was fixed, participants presented a decrease in blood flow during stimulus omissions, starting when a stimulus should begin: the expectation of a certain stimulus onset induced deactivation of the somatosensory cortex. When ISI was jittered, we observed an increase in blood flow during omissions: the expectation of a likely but not certain stimulus onset induced activation of the somatosensory cortex. Our results reveal SP in the brain as early as four weeks before term, based on the temporal structure of a unimodal somatosensory stimulation, and show that SP produces opposite regulation of activity in the somatosensory cortex depending on how liable is stimulus onset. Future studies will investigate the predictive value of somatosensory prediction on neurodevelopment in this vulnerable population.
