News Finding: These networks, and the connections between them, mature throughout early childhood all the way to young adulthood.
Paper Finding: These observations suggest that lagged maturation in anterior insula could contribute to several forms of inattention in ADHD.
News Context: "But without the database of fMRI images, and the spirit of collaboration that allowed them to be compiled and shared, we would never have reached this point." These networks, and the connections between them, mature throughout early childhood all the way to young adulthood. "It is particularly noteworthy that the networks we found to have lagging maturation in ADHD are linked to the very behaviors that are the symptoms of ADHD," he says.
Paper Context: We found prominent maturational lag in DMN interconnections with VAN, with a concentration of lagged connections involving anterior insula, a key hub in VAN. These observations suggest that lagged maturation in anterior insula could contribute to several forms of inattention in ADHD. There was also a lag in ADHD in integration of interconnections linking DMN and FPN (Fig.
