“…15,[25][26][27] A total of 478 5-year survivors attended follow-up at their former hospital for a standardized medical history, a comprehensive clinical examination and additional investigations focusing on somatic, psychosocial and socio-economic outcomes [e.g. intelligence using the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children/Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WISC/WAIS) 28 ]. Liver, renal, cardiac and lung function were investigated in various subgroups.…”

“…The exclusion criteria for TDC included: history of premature birth (< 35 weeks), presence of an NDD, first-degree relative with an NDD, psychiatric or neurologic diagnosis, confirmed via parental screening. Age-appropriate Wechsler scales were used to estimate full-scale IQ (Littell 1960 ). Participating institutions received approval for this study from their respective research ethics boards.…”

Cortico-amygdalar connectivity and externalizing/internalizing behavior in children with neurodevelopmental disorders

Background Externalizing and internalizing behaviors contribute to clinical impairment in children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). Although associations between externalizing or internalizing behaviors and cortico-amygdalar connectivity have been found in clinical and non-clinical pediatric samples, no previous study has examined whether similar shared associations are present across children with different NDDs. Methods Multi-modal neuroimaging and behavioral data from the Province of Ontario Neurodevelopmental Disorders (POND) Network were used. POND participants aged 6–18 years with a primary diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD), as well as typically developing children (TDC) with T1-weighted, resting-state fMRI or diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and parent-report Child Behavioral Checklist (CBCL) data available, were analyzed (total n = 346). Associations between externalizing or internalizing behavior and cortico-amygdalar structural and functional connectivity indices were examined using linear regressions, controlling for age, gender, and image-modality specific covariates. Behavior-by-diagnosis interaction effects were also examined. Results No significant linear associations (or diagnosis-by-behavior interaction effects) were found between CBCL-measured externalizing or internalizing behaviors and any of the connectivity indices examined. Post-hoc bootstrapping analyses indicated stability and reliability of these null results. Conclusions The current study provides evidence towards an absence of a shared linear relationship between internalizing or externalizing behaviors and cortico-amygdalar connectivity properties across a transdiagnostic sample of children with different primary NDD diagnoses and TDC. Different methodological approaches, including incorporation of multi-dimensional behavioral data (e.g., task-based fMRI) or clustering approaches may be needed to clarify complex brain-behavior relationships relevant to externalizing/internalizing behaviors in heterogeneous clinical NDD populations.

Background: Externalizing and internalizing behaviors are common and contribute to impairment in children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). Associations between externalizing or internalizing behaviors and cortico-amygdalar connectivity have been found in children with and without clinically significant internalizing/externalizing behaviors. This study examined whether such associations are present across children with different NDDs. Methods: Multi-modal neuroimaging and behavioral data from the Province of Ontario Neurodevelopmental Disorders (POND) Network were used. POND participants aged 6-18 years with a primary diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), as well as typically developing children (TDC) with T1-weighted, resting-state fMRI or diffusion weighted imaging and parent-report Child Behavioral Checklist (CBCL) data available, were analyzed (n range=157-346). Associations between externalizing or internalizing behavior and cortico-amygdalar structural and functional connectivity indices were examined using linear regressions, controlling for age, gender, and image-modality specific covariates. Behavior-by-diagnosis interaction effects were also examined. Results: No significant linear associations (or diagnosis-by-behavior interaction effects) were found between CBCL-measured externalizing or internalizing behaviors and any of the connectivity indices examined. Post-hoc bootstrapping analyses indicated stability and reliability of these null results. Conclusions: The current study provides evidence in favour of the absence of a shared linear relationship between internalizing or externalizing behaviors and cortico-amygdalar connectivity properties across a transdiagnostic sample of children with various NDDs and TDC. Detecting shared brain-behavior relationships in children with NDDs may benefit from the use of different methodological approaches, including incorporation of multi-dimensional behavioral data (i.e. behavioral assessments, neurocognitive tasks, task-based fMRI) or clustering approaches to delineate whether subgroups of individuals with different brain-behavior profiles are present within heterogeneous cross-disorder samples.
