Sex differences along the Autism Continuum: A twin study of brain structure

2018-05-30

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Females might possess protective mechanisms regarding autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and require a higher detrimental load, including structural brain alterations, before developing clinically relevant levels of autistic traits. This study examines sex differences in structural brain morphology in autism and autistic traits using a within-twin pair approach. Twin design inherently controls for s...
