Group differences in relative regional gray matter (GM) volume between the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and typically developing control (TDC) groups, stratified by children, adolescents (not shown), and adults (model 3). (A) Children with ASD had smaller GM volumes in the post-central gyrus and parieto-occipital junction and larger volumes in the limbic region, compared to TDC children; (B) in adult subgroup, there were larger volumes in the bilateral cuneus, bilateral dorsal medial prefrontal cortex/anterior prefrontal cortex (dmPFC/aPFC) in the ASD group relative to the TDC group.
