pubmed:abstractText
Correlational and discriminant analyses were applied to "resting" state (eyes covered, ears plugged) regional cerebral glucose metabolic data, obtained with positron emission tomography (PET) and [18F] fluorodeoxyglucose in 14 retarded adults with Down syndrome (10 men, 4 women; age 26-38 years) and 17 age- and sex-matched controls. Down and control subjects showed no differences in the pattern of correlations. However, a discriminant function, reflecting regional interactions involving primary language areas, successfully classified the Down (100%) and control (88%) subjects. The results are consistent with a disruption of brain regional interactions involving language areas in adults with Down syndrome.
