Overview

Randomized trial examines brain network changes in children and adolescents, indicating developmental shifts in connectivity patterns.

Key Points

  • This study aims to characterize the normative trajectories of functional connectivity in brain networks from childhood to adolescence.
  • Analyzed functional brain connectivity using voxel-wise degree centrality and network-level analyses.
  • Sample included 322 typically developing children aged 7–10.99 and adolescents aged 11–15 from Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange repositories.
  • Employed multi-level approaches to assess connectivity across different brain regions.
  • Adolescents showed stronger connectivity of thalamus and basal ganglia with the Ventral Attention Network and Frontoparietal Network (p<0.05).
  • Children exhibited stronger connectivity within posterior sensory-perceptual nodes, particularly in angular and occipital regions.
  • Findings suggest a shift from sensory-based to more integrated brain architectures during adolescence.
