“…In other words, no studies to date have reported higher microstructural (functional anisotropy (FA), mean diffusivity (MD), radial diffusivity (RD), axial diffusivity (AD)) or macrostructural (tract volume) properties in individuals with autism compared to TD controls (but see Ray, Miller, Karalunas, Robertson, Grayson et al, 2014). In contrast, the most consistent finding in these studies is reduced microstructural properties of the white matter tracts and volume of the corpus callosum (Hanaie, Mohri, Kagitani-Shimono, Tachibana, Matsuzaki et al, 2014;Schaer et al, 2013;Shukla et al, 2011;Travers, Tromp, Adluru, Lange, Destiche et al, 2015). Other converging structural connectivity findings include reduced microstructural properties of the inferior fronto-occipital fasciculus (IFOF) and the inferior longitudinal fasciculus (ILF) (Koldewyn et al, 2014) in individuals with autism, which are two long-range fiber tracts that originate within the occipital lobe and traverse the temporal lobe, with the ILF terminating in the anterior temporal lobe and the IFOF terminating in the frontal lobe.…”
