A comparison of automated segmentation and manual tracing for quantifying hippocampal and amygdala volumes

TL;DR: The goal was to compare the performance of two popular and fully automated tools, FSL/FIRST and FreeSurfer, to expert hand tracing in the measurement of the hippocampus and amygdala, and found both techniques had comparable volume overlap and similar sample size estimates.
Journal ArticleDOI

The genetic architecture of the human cerebral cortex

Katrina L. Grasby, +359 more
- 20 Mar 2020 - 
TL;DR: Results support the radial unit hypothesis that different developmental mechanisms promote surface area expansion and increases in thickness and find evidence that brain structure is a key phenotype along the causal pathway that leads from genetic variation to differences in general cognitive function.
Journal ArticleDOI

Largest GWAS of PTSD (N=20 070) yields genetic overlap with schizophrenia and sex differences in heritability

Laramie E. Duncan, +60 more
- 01 Mar 2018 - 
TL;DR: The results demonstrate genetic influences on the development of PTSD, identify shared genetic risk between PTSD and other psychiatric disorders and highlight the importance of multiethnic/racial samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

ENIGMA and global neuroscience: A decade of large-scale studies of the brain in health and disease across more than 40 countries

Paul M. Thompson, +213 more
TL;DR: This review summarizes the last decade of work by the ENIGMA Consortium, a global alliance of over 1400 scientists across 43 countries, studying the human brain in health and disease, and highlights the advantages of collaborative large-scale coordinated data analyses for testing reproducibility and robustness of findings.
Journal ArticleDOI

International meta-analysis of PTSD genome-wide association studies identifies sex- and ancestry-specific genetic risk loci

Caroline M. Nievergelt, +213 more
TL;DR: A GWAS from the Psychiatric Genomics Consortium is reported in which two risk loci in European ancestry and one locus in African ancestry individuals are identified and it is found that PTSD is genetically correlated with several other psychiatric traits.
