The paper uses magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging to identify sex differences in brain metabolites across multiple cohorts, finding a consistent male higher tNAA/tCr ratio in gray and white matter.

This study uses high-resolution 3D-MRSI to assess neurometabolite differences in youth at risk for psychosis compared to controls, finding elevated tNAA and Ins in specific brain regions.

This study identifies two novel genetic loci associated with Tourette Syndrome through a genome-wide meta-analysis and integrates functional data to implicate specific genes.

The paper investigates gene-environment interactions related to tic severity by analyzing SNPs from GWASs of Tourette syndrome and related disorders in interaction with pre- and perinatal adversity.

This study analyzes structural brain asymmetries in ADHD using 39 datasets, finding small effects that do not meet study-wide significance thresholds.

This study uses machine learning to show that structural brain anomalies in ADHD are similar in children and adults, supporting continuity of the disorder's pathophysiology.
