概括
外化光谱 (EXT) 的大脑结构相关性是最小的. 大规模的神经成像没有发现大脑形态测量和EXT因子之间的显著联系,这表明大脑结构关联最小.
科学领域:
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 精神病学是一个精神病学.
- 遗传学 遗传学 是一个
背景情况:
- 对外化光谱 (EXT) 的大脑结构相关的证据有限且不一致.
- 之前的大型样本研究只集中在人格特征或精神障碍上,结果为零到小效应.
- 研究整合的个性-精神病理EXT因素对于理解其神经生物学基础至关重要.
研究的目的:
- 通过整合个性和精神病理结构来检查外部化谱 (EXT) 的结构性大脑相关性.
- 探索这些关系跨不同的层次的形态特异性,从全球措施到区域大脑体积.
- 识别与外部化频谱的多面性质相关的潜在神经生物学标记.
主要方法:
- 利用了IMAGEN研究 (N = 1,370) 的数据,包括结构磁共振成像指标.
- 采用探索性因子分析来定义综合的EXT因素,包括人格和精神病理.
- 评估大脑形态测量使用综合测量,皮质下体积和Desikan atlas区域 (161度量).
主要成果:
- 大多数研究的大脑-EXT关系是无效的,所有效应大小都非常小 (最大边际R2<0.02).
- 预先注册的补充分析显示,重要发现是由总内体积和参与者的性别驱动的.
- 在控制总内体积和性别等共变量后,这些显著的关联变得无意义.
结论:
- 这些发现与之前的大型样本研究一致,表明与外部化谱的结构性大脑关联最小.
- 强调相关共变量 (例如,总内体积,性别) 在临床神经科学研究中的关键作用.
- 突出了大样本大小的必要性,以便对大脑行为关系进行强大可靠的调查.

Brain Imaging
208
Brain imaging technologies provide critical insights into both the structure and function of the human brain, enabling medical professionals and researchers to diagnose, study, and treat neurological disorders or psychiatric disorders more effectively.
These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic...

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
36
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects approximately 5-8% of children globally, with around 60-70% of cases persisting into adulthood. ADHD has significant implications for educational attainment, social interactions, and occupational success.
Diagnostic Criteria and Symptoms
To diagnose ADHD, symptoms must manifest before age 12 and be evident across multiple settings....
