ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are heterogeneous neurodevelopmental conditions with complex underlying neurobiology that is still poorly understood. Despite overlapping presentation and sex-biased prevalence, autism and ADHD are rarely studied together, and sex differences are often overlooked. Population modelling, often referred to as normative modelling, provides a unified framework for studying age-specific and sex-specific divergences in brain development.

METHODS:

Here we used population modelling and a large, multi-site neuroimaging dataset (N = 4255 after quality control) to characterise cortical anatomy associated with autism and ADHD, benchmarked against models of average brain development based on a sample of over 75,000 individuals. We also examined sex and age differences, relationship with autistic traits, and explored the co-occurrence of autism and ADHD (autism+ADHD).

RESULTS:

We observed robust neuroanatomical signatures of both autism and ADHD. Overall, autistic individuals showed greater cortical thickness and volume, that was localised to the superior temporal cortex, whereas individuals with ADHD showed more global increases in cortical thickness, but lower cortical volume and surface area across much of the cortex. The autism+ADHD group displayed a unique pattern of widespread increases in cortical thickness, and certain decreases in surface area. We also found evidence that sex modulates the neuroanatomy of autism but not ADHD, and an age-by-diagnosis interaction for ADHD only.

CONCLUSIONS:

These results indicate distinct cortical differences in autism and ADHD that are differentially impacted by age, sex, and potentially unique patterns related to their co-occurrence.
