Background Although it is well recognized that autism is associated with altered patterns of
over-and under-connectivity, specifics are still a matter of debate. Little has been done so far …

The underconnectivity theory of autism attributes the disorder to lower anatomical and
functional systems connectivity between frontal and more posterior cortical processing. Here …

Multiple types of indirect evidence have been used to support theories of altered cortical
connectivity in autism spectrum disorders (ASD). In other developmental disorders reduced …

Macrocephaly and brain overgrowth have been associated with autism spectrum disorder.
We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to provide an overall estimate of effect …

White matter tracts of the brain allow neurons and neuronal networks to communicate and
function with high efficiency. The aim of this review is to briefly introduce diffusion tensor …

The corpus callosum is the largest white matter structure in the human brain, connecting
cortical regions of both hemispheres. Complete and partial callosotomies or callosal lesion …

Although the neurobiology of autism has been studied for more than two decades, the
majority of these studies have examined brain structure 10, 20, or more years after the onset …

Agenesis of the corpus callosum (AgCC), a failure to develop the large bundle of fibers that
connect the cerebral hemispheres, occurs in 1: 4000 individuals. Genetics, animal models …

Autistic-spectrum conditions and psychotic-spectrum conditions (mainly schizophrenia,
bipolar disorder, and major depression) represent two major suites of disorders of human …

Callosal projection neurons (CPN) are a diverse population of neocortical projection
neurons that connect the two hemispheres of the cerebral cortex via the corpus callosum …
