Hemodynamic latency is associated with reduced intelligence across the lifespan: an fMRI DCM study of aging, cerebrovascular integrity, and cognitive ability.

Changes in neurovascular coupling are associated with both Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia in later life, but this may be confounded by cerebrovascular risk. We hypothesized that hemodynamic latency would be associated with reduced cognitive functioning across the lifespan, holding constant demographic and cerebrovascular risk. In 387 adults aged 18-85 (mean = 48.

Inter-hemispheric Asymmetry Patterns in the ADHD Brain: A Neuroimaging Replication Study.

Attention-deficit/ hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurodevelopment disorder in children, and many genetic markers have been linked to the behavioral phenotypes of this highly heritable disease. The neuroimaging correlates are similarly complex, with multiple combinations of structural and functional alterations associated with the disease presentations of hyperactivity and inattentiveness. Thus far, neuroimaging studies have provided mixed results in ADHD patients, particularly with respect to the laterality of findings.
