Popis: | Item does not contain fulltext OBJECTIVE: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is currently diagnosed on the basis of subjective measures, despite evidence for multi-systemic structural and neurofunctional deficits. A consistently observed neurofunctional deficit is in fine-temporal discrimination (TD). The aim of this proof-of-concept study was to examine the feasibility of distinguishing patients with ADHD from controls using multivariate pattern recognition analyses of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) data of TD. METHOD: A total of 20 medication-naive adolescent male patients with ADHD and 20 age-matched healthy controls underwent fMRI while performing a TD task. The fMRI data were analyzed with Gaussian process classifiers to predict individual ADHD diagnosis based on brain activation patterns. RESULTS: The pattern of brain activation correctly classified up to 80% of patients and 70% of controls, achieving an overall classification accuracy of 75%. The distributed activation networks with the highest delineation between patients and controls corresponded to a distributed network of brain regions involved in TD and typically compromised in ADHD, including inferior and dorsolateral prefrontal, insula, and parietal cortices, and the basal ganglia, anterior cingulate, and cerebellum. These regions overlapped with areas of reduced activation in patients with ADHD relative to controls in a univariate analysis, suggesting that these are dysfunctional regions. CONCLUSIONS: We show evidence that pattern recognition analyses combined with fMRI using a disorder-sensitive task such as timing have potential in providing objective diagnostic neuroimaging biomarkers of ADHD. |
