There is increasing recognition of a relationship between regional variability in cerebral
gyrification and neurodevelopment. Recent work in morphometric MRI has shown that the …

Developmental dyslexia is frequently associated with atypical brain structure and function
within regions of the left hemisphere reading network. To date, few studies have employed …

There has been debate on whether phonological deficits explain reading difficulty in
Chinese, since Chinese is a logographic language which does not employ grapheme …

Evidence from anatomical and functional imaging studies have highlighted major
modifications of cortical circuits during adolescence. These include reductions of gray matter …

Human cortical folding is believed to correlate with cognitive functions. This likely correlation
may have something to do with why abnormalities of cortical folding have been found in …

Abnormalities in large-scale brain networks have been recently reported in dyslexia;
however, it remains unclear whether these abnormalities are congenital (due to dyslexia per …

Due to the logographic nature of the writing system, learning to read Chinese places heavy
demands on encoding of orthographic forms through rote memorization. Moreover …

Local gyrification index (LGI), a metric quantifying cortical folding, was evaluated in 105 boys
with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and 49 typically developing (TD) boys at 3 and 5 years …

Abnormalities in cortical structure are commonly observed in children with dyslexia in key
regions of the “reading network.” Whether alteration in cortical features reflects pathology …

Introduction: Japanese is unique, as it features two distinct writing systems that share the
same sound and meaning: syllabic Hiragana and logographic Kanji scripts. Acquired …
