      Sex differences in frontal lobe connectivity in adults with autism spectrum conditions 

      Zeestraten, E. A.; Gudbrandsen, Maria; Daly,Eileen M.; de Schotten, Michel Thiebaut; Catani, Marco; Dell’Acqua, Flavio; Lai,Meng-Chuan; Ruigrok,Amber N. V.; Lombardo,Michael V.; Chakrabarti,B.; Baron-Cohen,Simon; Ecker,C.; Murphy,Declan G. M.; Craig, Michael C. (2017)
      Autism spectrum conditions (ASC) are more prevalent in males than females. The biological basis of this difference remains unclear. It has been postulated that one of the primary causes of ASC is a partial disconnection ...
