Titre : Cortical Thickness Differences in Autistic Children With and Without Intellectual Disability Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Derek S. ANDREWS, Auteur ; Andrew J. DAKOPOLOS, Auteur ; Joshua K. LEE, Auteur ; Brianna HEATH, Auteur ; Devani CORDERO, Auteur ; Marjorie SOLOMON, Auteur ; David G. AMARAL, Auteur ; Christine Wu NORDAHL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.486-497 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism cortical thickness intellectual disability IQ MRI Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : ABSTRACT Of the 1 in 36 individuals in the United States who are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, nearly 40% also have intellectual disability (ID). The cortex has been widely implicated in neural processes underlying autistic behaviors as well as intellectual ability. Thus, neuroimaging features such as cortical thickness are of particular interest as a possible biomarkers of the condition. However, neuroimaging studies often fail to include autistic individuals with ID. As a result, there are few studies of cortical thickness in autistic individuals across the entire range of intellectual abilities. This study used MRI to evaluate cortical thickness in young autistic children (n?=?88, mean age 5.37?years) with a large range of intellectual ability (IQ 19?133) as well as nonautistic, nondevelopmentally delayed (referred to here as typically developing [TD]) peers (n?=?53, mean age 5.29?years). We first investigated associations between full scale IQ and cortical thickness in both autistic and TD children. Autistic children had significant negative associations (i.e., thinner cortex, higher IQ) in bilateral entorhinal cortex, right fusiform gyrus, superior, middle and inferior temporal gyri, and right temporal pole that were not present in TD children. Significantly thicker cortex was also observed in these regions for autistic children with ID (i.e., IQ???70) compared with those without. Last, given the reported correspondence between the severity of autism symptoms and intellectual ability, we compared cortical thickness associations with both IQ and ADOS Calibrated Severity Scores and found these patterns overlapped to a significant degree across the cortex.

Titre : Altered Cortical Thickness and Tract Integrity of the Mirror Neuron System and Associated Social Communication in Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Hsiang-Yun CHIEN, Auteur ; Susan Shur-Fen GAU, Auteur ; Yung-Chin HSU, Auteur ; Yu-Jen CHEN, Auteur ; Yu-Chun LO, Auteur ; Yao-Chia SHIH, Auteur ; Wen-Yih Isaac TSENG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.694-708 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder mirror neuron system diffusion spectrum imaging cortical thickness white matter integrity tractography social communication Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Previous studies using neural activity recording and neuroimaging techniques have reported functional deficits in the mirror neuron system (MNS) for individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, a few studies focusing on gray and white matter structures of the MNS have yielded inconsistent results. The current study recruited adolescents and young adults with ASD (aged 15–26 years) and age-matched typically developing (TD) controls (aged 14–25 years). The cortical thickness (CT) and microstructural integrity of the tracts connecting the regions forming the classical MNS were investigated. High-resolution T1-weighted imaging and diffusion spectrum imaging were performed to quantify the CT and tract integrity, respectively. The structural covariance of the CT of the MNS regions revealed a weaker coordination of the MNS network in ASD. A strong correlation was found between the integrity of the right frontoparietal tracts and the social communication subscores measured by the Chinese version of the Social Communication Questionnaire. The results showed that there were no significant mean differences in the CTs and tract integrity between the ASD and TD groups, but revealed a moderate or even reverse age effect on the frontal MNS structures in ASD. In conclusion, aberrant structural coordination may be an underlying factor affecting the function of the MNS in ASD patients. The association between the right frontoparietal tracts and social communication performance implies a neural correlate of communication processing in the autistic brain. This study provides evidence of abnormal MNS structures and their influence on social communication in individuals with ASD.

The aim of the present study was to explore the brain morphological (cortical thickness and surface area) correlates of A/D symptoms and the extent to which these phenotypes vary depending on the quality of the parenting context in which children develop. Structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans were acquired on 45 children with Child Protective Services (CPS) involvement due to risk of not receiving adequate care (high-risk group) and 25 children without CPS involvement (low-risk group) (rangeage = 8.08-12.14; Mage = 10.05) to assess cortical thickness (CT) and cortical surface area (SA). A/D symptoms were measured using the Child Behavioral Checklist. The association between A/D symptoms and CT, but not SA, differed by risk status such that high-risk children showed decreasing CT as A/D scores increased, whereas low-risk children showed increasing CT as A/D scores increased. This interaction was specific to CT in prefrontal, frontal, temporal, and parietal cortical regions. The groups had marginally different A/D scores, in the direction of higher risk being associated with lower A/D scores. Results suggest that CT correlates of A/D symptoms are differentially shaped by the quality of early caregiving experiences and should be distinguished between high- and low-risk children.

MCLAUGHLIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1154-1164 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Abuse childhood adversity ventromedial prefrontal cortex temporal cortex cortical thickness Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Alterations in gray matter development represent a potential pathway through which childhood abuse is associated with psychopathology. Several prior studies find reduced volume and thickness of prefrontal (PFC) and temporal cortex regions in abused compared with nonabused adolescents, although most prior research is based on adults and volume-based measures. This study tests the hypothesis that child abuse, independent of parental education, predicts reduced cortical thickness in prefrontal and temporal cortices as well as reduced gray mater volume (GMV) in subcortical regions during adolescence. Methods Structural MRI scans were obtained from 21 adolescents exposed to physical and/or sexual abuse and 37 nonabused adolescents (ages 13–20). Abuse was operationalized using dichotomous and continuous measures. We examined associations between abuse and brain structure in several a priori-defined regions, controlling for parental education, age, sex, race, and total brain volume for subcortical GMV. Significance was evaluated at p < .05 with a false discovery rate correction. Results Child abuse exposure and severity were associated with reduced thickness in ventromedial prefrontal cortex (PFC), right lateral orbitofrontal cortex, right inferior frontal gyrus, bilateral parahippocampal gyrus (PHG), left temporal pole, and bilateral inferior, right middle, and right superior temporal gyri. Neither abuse measure predicted cortical surface area or subcortical GMV. Bilateral PHG thickness was inversely related to externalizing symptoms. Conclusions Child abuse, an experience characterized by a high degree of threat, is associated with reduced cortical thickness in ventromedial and ventrolateral PFC and medial and lateral temporal cortex in adolescence. Reduced PHG thickness may be a mediator linking abuse with externalizing psychopathology, although prospective research is needed to evaluate this possibility.

We assessed the effects of age on cortical thickness in individuals with ASD, between the ages of 7 and 39 years in comparison to typically developing controls. Additionally, we examined differences in cortical thickness in relation to symptomatology in the ASD group, and their association with age. Analyses were conducted using a general linear model, controlling for sex. Social and communication scores from the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) were correlated with the thickness of regions implicated in those functions. Controls showed widespread cortical thinning relative to the ASD group. Within regions-of-interest, increased thickness in the rostral anterior cingulate cortex was associated with poorer social scores. Additionally, a significant interaction between age and social impairment was found in the orbitofrontal cortex, with more impaired younger children having decreased thickness in this region. These results suggest that differential neurodevelopmental trajectories are present in individuals with ASD and some differences are associated with diagnostic behaviours.
