Abstract: Movement skill difficulties in children [or developmental coordination disorder (DCD)] often persist into adulthood (in up to 70% of cases). The suggestion of white matter microstructure alterations in children with DCD raises the question of whether similar alterations are present in adults with probable DCD (pDCD). Twelve adults with pDCD and 11 adults without pDCD underwent diffusion tensor imaging. The results showed that the pDCD group had significantly lower fractional anisotropy in the corticospinal tra… Show more

“…In contrast, the finding of lower FA in the CST tract does not replicate previous findings for children [63]. However, it has to be born in mind that given the considerable heterogeneity of DCD, the results are not directly comparable because these studies tested different individuals who also markedly differed in age range (18-40 years [56] and 8-12 years [63]). As DTI (or (HARDI)) with (CSD) is not an invasive method, and does not use ionising radiation, it would be desirable to clarify these differences in a longitudinal study which starts in childhood and continues into adulthood.…”

“…The results from Hyde and colleagues' study based on CSD seem very promising. However, the authors did not replicate the CST abnormality found in the study reported by Williams and colleagues [56], and relied on a small sample of participants; therefore, the results of Hyde and colleagues' study need to be replicated with a larger sample of DCDAs.…”

“…These circuits are involved in high‐order control of movements, including planning, coordination, and surveillance. Increased FA in the ALIC, or nearby areas, has previously been identified in children born PT [Allin et al, ; Groeschel et al, ], and decreased MD in the ALIC has been found in adults with developmental coordination disorder [Williams et al, ]. The mechanism behind this increase in FA is unknown.…”
