No evidence for differences in contrast of the grey-white matter boundary in Autism Spectrum Disorders: An open replication

Résumé

The contrast of the interface between the cortical grey matter and the white matter is emerging as an important neuroimaging biomarker for several brain disorders. Differences in grey to white matter contrast could be related to abnormalities in neuronal migration or in intra-cortical myelination, and are an appealing biomarker for ASD. Two previous studies have reported differences in contrast between patients with autism spectrum disorder and non-autistic controls. We aimed at replicating this finding using open data from the ABIDE initiative, phases 1 and 2, gathering data from 2,148 subjects from 26 different centres and on 764 individuals from the EU-AIMS project (6 different centres). We used multiple linear regression to study the effect of the diagnosis of ASD on contrast, and 3 different strategies for controlling for multiple comparisons. We did not find statistically significant differences in the EU-AIMS dataset, and those that we found in the ABIDE dataset were due to a single centre. All the code necessary to replicate our analyses has been made available open source: https://github.com/neuroanatomy/GWPC .
