TL;DR: Right-handed participants with ADHD showed a significantly higher rate of growth in the anterior-most region of the corpus callosum than their typically developing peers, documents the dynamic, age-dependent nature of callosal and congruent prefrontal cortical abnormalities characterizing ADHD.

TL;DR: Hormonal changes are correlated with weight gain in patients with childhood-onset schizophrenia on clozapine, and body mass index increase was significantly correlated with decrease in ghrelin and adiponectin and was positively correlated with clinical improvement.

TL;DR: These findings will be discussed within the context of efforts to identify syndrome specific cognitive-behavioral profiles for youth with different genetic syndromes in order to inform basic science investigations into the etiology of EF difficulties in these groups and to develop treatment approaches that are tailored to the needs of these groups.

TL;DR: This work related genotype at Leu607Phe and Ser704Cys to cortical thickness (CT) in 255 typically developing individuals aged 9–22 years on whom 598 magnetic resonance imaging brain scans had been acquired longitudinally to suggest that these SNPs might operate to shape risk for diverse phenotypes by impacting on the early maturation of fronto-temporal cortices.

TL;DR: This work uses structural neuroimaging to measure a global sulcation index (SI), brain size‐independent sulcal lengthening in males versus females, and insensitivity of overall folding architecture to SCD, and provides a novel context for future studies of human cortical folding in health and disease.
