Asymmetry of fusiform structure in autism spectrum disorder: trajectory and association with symptom severity / C. C. DOUGHERTY in Molecular Autism, 7 (2016)
[article]
Titre : Asymmetry of fusiform structure in autism spectrum disorder: trajectory and association with symptom severity Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : C. C. DOUGHERTY, Auteur ; D. W. EVANS, Auteur ; G. J. KATUWAL, Auteur ; A. M. MICHAEL, Auteur Article en page(s) : 28p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adolescent Adult Algorithms Autism Spectrum Disorder/diagnostic imaging/pathology Child Cross-Sectional Studies Humans Image Processing, Computer-Assisted Magnetic Resonance Imaging Male Severity of Illness Index Temporal Lobe/anatomy & histology Young Adult Asymmetry Autism spectrum disorder Development Fusiform gyrus Structural imaging Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: While asymmetry in the fusiform gyrus (FFG) has been reported in functional and structural studies in typically developing controls (TDC), few studies have examined FFG asymmetry in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) subjects and those studies are limited by small sample sizes, and confounded by cognitive ability or handedness. No previous work has examined FFG surface area or cortical thickness asymmetry in ASD; nor do we understand the trajectory of FFG asymmetry over time. Finally, it is not known how FFG structural asymmetry relates to ASD symptom severity. METHODS: In this study, we examined FFG volume, surface area, and cortical thickness asymmetry, as well as their cross-sectional trajectories in a large sample of right-handed males aged 7 to 25 years with 128 ASD and 127 TDC subjects using general linear models. In addition, we examined the relationship between FFG asymmetry and ASD severity using the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) and Gotham autism severity scores. RESULTS: Findings revealed that while group differences were evident with mean leftward asymmetry in ASD and mean near symmetry in TDC volume and surface area, asymmetry for both groups existed on a spectrum encompassing leftward and rightward asymmetry. In ASD subjects, volume asymmetry was negatively associated with ADOS and autism severity score symptom measures, with a subset of rightward asymmetric patients being most severely affected. We also observed differential trajectory of surface area asymmetry: ASD subjects exhibited a change from leftward asymmetry toward symmetry from age 7 to 25, whereas TDCs exhibited the reverse trend with a change from near symmetry toward leftward symmetry over the observed age range. CONCLUSIONS: Abnormalities in FFG structural asymmetry are related to symptom severity in ASD and show differential developmental trajectory compared to TDC. This study is the first to note these findings. These results may have important implications for understanding the role of FFG asymmetry in ASD.

HERBERT, Auteur Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : p.82-92 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Structural imaging Volumetric brain analysis Videotape scoringMotor stereotypies Autistic Disorder Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Motor stereotypies are defined as patterned, repetitive, purposeless movements. These stigmatizing motor behaviors represent one manifestation of the third core criterion for an Autistic Disorder (AD) diagnosis, and are becoming viewed as potential early markers of autism. Moreover, motor stereotypies might be a tangible expression of the underlying neurobiology of this neurodevelopmental disorder. In this study, we videoscored stereotypies recorded during semi-structured play sessions from school age children with AD. We examined the effect of severity and persistence over time of stereotypies on brain volumetric changes. Our findings confirmed that the brain volume of school age children with AD is, on average, larger than that of age-matched typically developing children. However, we have failed to detect any sign of volumetric differences in brain regions thought to be particularly linked to the pathophysiology of stereotypies. This negative finding may suggest that, at least with respect to motor stereotypies, functional rather than structural alterations might be the underpinning of these disruptive motor manifestations of autism.

Titre : Evidence against the "normalization" prediction of the early brain overgrowth hypothesis of autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lisa D. YANKOWITZ, Auteur ; John D. HERRINGTON, Auteur ; Benjamin E YERYS, Auteur ; Joseph A. PEREIRA, Auteur ; Juhi PANDEY, Auteur ; Robert T. SCHULTZ, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : 51 p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adolescent Autism Brain volume Iq Mri Structural imaging Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: The frequently cited Early Overgrowth Hypothesis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) postulates that there is overgrowth of the brain in the first 2 years of life, which is followed by a period of arrested growth leading to normalized brain volume in late childhood and beyond. While there is consistent evidence for early brain overgrowth, there is mixed evidence for normalization of brain volume by middle childhood. The outcome of this debate is important to understanding the etiology and neurodevelopmental trajectories of ASD. METHODS: Brain volume was examined in two very large single-site samples of children, adolescents, and adults. The primary sample comprised 456 6-25-year-olds (ASD n = 240, typically developing controls (TDC) n = 216), including a large number of females (n = 102) and spanning a wide IQ range (47-158). The replication sample included 175 males. High-resolution T1-weighted anatomical MRI images were examined for group differences in total brain, cerebellar, ventricular, gray, and white matter volumes. RESULTS: The ASD group had significantly larger total brain, cerebellar, gray matter, white matter, and lateral ventricular volumes in both samples, indicating that brain volume remains enlarged through young adulthood, rather than normalizing. There were no significant age or sex interactions with diagnosis in these measures. However, a significant diagnosis-by-IQ interaction was detected in the larger sample, such that increased brain volume was related to higher IQ in the TDCs, but not in the ASD group. Regions-of-significance analysis indicated that total brain volume was larger in ASD than TDC for individuals with IQ less than 115, providing a potential explanation for prior inconsistent brain size results. No relationships were found between brain volume and measures of autism symptom severity within the ASD group. LIMITATIONS: Our cross-sectional sample may not reflect individual changes over time in brain volume and cannot quantify potential changes in volume prior to age 6. CONCLUSIONS: These findings challenge the "normalization" prediction of the brain overgrowth hypothesis by demonstrating that brain enlargement persists across childhood into early adulthood. The findings raise questions about the clinical implications of brain enlargement, since we find that it neither confers cognitive benefits nor predicts increased symptom severity in ASD.
