This study examined white matter microstructural differences in 7- to 12-year-old children with DS (n = 23), autism (n = 27), and typical development (n = 50) using DTI as well as High Angular Resolution Diffusion Imaging, and Neurite Orientation and Dispersion Imaging. There was a spatially specific pattern of results that showed a dissociation between intra- and inter-hemispheric pathways. Intra-hemispheric pathways (e.g., inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus, superior longitudinal fasciculus) exhibited reduced organization and structural integrity. Inter-hemispheric pathways (e.g., corpus callosum projections) and motor pathways (e.g., corticospinal tract) showed denser neurite packing and lower neurite dispersion. The current findings provide early insight into white matter development in school-aged children with DS and have the potential to further elucidate microstructural differences and inform more targeted clinical trials than what has previously been observed through DTI models alone.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49083,"journal":{"name":"Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience","volume":"73 ","pages":"Article 101540"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143552821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

How do the semantic, practical, or theoretical constraints that we place on studying “development” influence how we measure and interpret individual differences? While it is important to consider these questions across the lifespan, they are particularly relevant for conducting and interpreting research on individual differences in fetal, infant, and toddler neurodevelopment due to the rapid, profound, and heterogeneous changes happening during this period, which may be predictive of long-term outcomes.

We applied constrained spherical deconvolution (CSD) and fiber-specific modelling to characterize developmental changes in fiber density of key white matter tracts of the reading network, and investigated associations between tract-wise fiber density and children’s phonological decoding abilities. Fiber density was measured from ages 2–13 years, and decoding ability (pseudoword reading) was assessed at ages 6 years and older. Higher decoding ability was associated with greater fiber density in the left arcuate fasciculus, and effects remained consistent over time. Follow-up analysis revealed that asymmetry changes in the arcuate fasciculus were moderated by decoding ability: good decoders showed leftward asymmetry from early childhood onward, while poorer decoders shifted toward leftward asymmetry over time. These results suggest that densely organized fibers in the left arcuate fasciculus serve as a foundation for the development of reading skills from the pre-reading stage through fluent reading.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49083,"journal":{"name":"Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience","volume":"72 ","pages":"Article 101537"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143508263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Establishing power for fcMRI enrichment analysis will be important for future neuropsychiatric and cognitive neuroscience study designs that plan to include this method. Here, we use realistic simulation methods, which mimic the covariance structure of fcMRI data, to examine the false positive rate and statistical power of one technique for enrichment analysis, over-representation analysis.
