Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary endpoints of this study are developmental changes in structural and functional brain connectivity. The measures of interest are resting-state functional connectivity, as assessed with resting-state functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (rs-fMRI), myelination as assessed with Magnetization Transfer Imaging (MTI), and white matter integrity, as assessed with track-based Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI)-measures.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
An exploratory analysis of the effect of genotype on shared risk genes for autism and ADHD will be conducted and symptoms of ADHD and ASD from symptom rating scales and performance on computerized tasks will be analyzed
