Correlating clinical course with baseline subcortical shape in provisional tic disorder.

Article Synopsis
- A study was conducted on children with new tic disorders (less than 9 months) to explore the relationship between subcortical brain structure and tic symptoms over time.
- The research involved 187 children, grouping them into those with new tic disorders (NT), tic-free healthy controls (HC), and those with chronic tic disorders/Tourette syndrome (TS), assessing brain scans and tic severity scores.
- Findings revealed distinct structural differences, such as a larger right hippocampus in NT children and specific patterns of brain deformation, which could serve as early indicators of tic disorder outcomes regarding symptom improvement.
