Analysis reveals neuroanatomical changes linked to copy number variants in neurodevelopmental disorders, suggesting critical genetic influences.

Main finding indicates that brain morphological abnormalities are linked to neurodevelopmental disorders through genetic factors.
Key evidence shows associations of size differences in brain regions with copy number variants affecting neuroanatomy.
The approach involved analyzing MRI and genetic data from over 30K participants in the UK Biobank.
Significance lies in identifying potential biomarkers and understanding the shared pathophysiology of NDDs and neuropsychiatric disorders.

Azidane et al. (2025) studied this question.
