Research findings reveal significant functional brain hyperconnectivity in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) compared to typically developing children. The study demonstrates that brain hyperconnectivity patterns can predict ASD symptom severity and is supported by data from multiple independent cohorts. Results suggest potential mechanisms underlying ASD and implications for understanding brain development in autism.
