Individual differences among children within a DSM diagnostic category are increasingly recognized across the biological psychiatry field, with recent calls to account for this variability in research studies.

Current diagnostic systems for neurodevelopmental disorders do not have clear links to underlying neurobiology, limiting their utility in identifying targeted treatments for individuals.

No biomarkers have been identified to supplement diagnosis of ASD and ADHD.
“Although there exists a large body of work implicating functional brain network alterations in ASD and ADHD (Ameis, 2017), to date, no biomarkers have been identified to supplement diagnosis of these disorders.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
