Structural Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)

Structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive technique for examining the anatomy and pathology of the brain (as opposed to using functional magnetic resonance imaging [fMRI] to examine brain activity).

In NTR projects YC_BS1, YC_BS2 and YC_BS3, T1-weighted scans were obtained from whole head MRI scan, acquired with a 1.5 Tesla Philips Achieva scanner (Philips, Best, The Netherlands, for protocol details see: https://doi.org/10.1017/thg.2012.4). In NTR project YC_ADHMRI, brain MRI was performed on a 1.5 Tesla Sonata MR system (Siemens, Erlangen, Germany, for protocol details see: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2007.01.037).

Purpose	The research carried out by the Netherlands Twin Register focuses on the role of heritability in mental and physical health. For instance, the NTR investigates why some people become more easily depressed than others, or why certain people get diabetes while others do not. Other research areas include lifestyle and habits that influence health and disease, such as smoking, drinking and exercise.

Wave alternate title	Brain Scale measurement 1 YC_BS1, Brain Scale measurement t0, BrainScale age 9
Short description of the wave	The YC_BS1 project was the first measurement in the Dutch longitudinal Brain Scale study in which twins, their siblings and their parents were assessed at three year intervals. YC_BS1 targeted 9-year old twins (mean age = 9.1 years, SD = 0.51 years) born between 1995 and 1996, and their 9-14 year old siblings (mean age = 11.9 years, SD = 1.16 years) born between 1990 and 1997. The main aim of the Brain Scale project was to explore to what extent genetic and environmental factors explain individual differences in brain development and cognition. Data collection included psychometric IQ tests, a comprehensive neuropsychological testing protocol, and parental and self-ratings of behavioral and emotional problems. Physical maturation was measured through assessment of Tanner stages. Hormonal levels (cortisol, luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, testosterone, and estrogens) were assessed in urine and saliva. Brain scans were acquired using 1.5 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), which provided volumetric measures and measures of cortical thickness. Buccal swabs were collected for DNA isolation for future candidate gene and genome-wide analysis studies.

Short description of the wave	The YC_BS3 project was the third measurement in the Dutch longitudinal Brain Scale study in which twins, their siblings and their parents were assessed at three year intervals. YC_BS3 took place eight years after the baseline (YC_BS1) and targeted 17-year old twins (mean age = 16.85 years, SD = 0.36 years) born between 1995 and 1996 and their 17-22 old siblings (mean age = 19.26 years, SD = 1.30 years) born between 1990 and 1997.....

Physical maturation was measured through assessment of Tanner stages. Hormonal levels were assessed in urine and saliva. Brain scans were acquired using 1.5 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), which provided volumetric measures and measures of cortical thickness. Buccal swabs were collected for DNA isolation for future genetic association studies.

Wave alternate title	MRI-based research into problem behaviors in twins YC_ADHMRI
Short description of the wave	In the ADHD-MRI project, the genetic and environmental influence on ADHD related neurobiological changes were investigated in monozygotic twins (mean age = 14.9 years, SD = 1.2 years) who were born between 1986 and 1993. Twins were selected based on their Child Behavior Checklist Attention Problems (CBCL-AP) scores obtained in the regular YNTR survey waves and divided into three groups: discordant pairs (one affected, one unaffected), concordant pairs (both affected) and control pairs (both unaffected). To determine the presence of ADHD, mothers of the participants were interviewed with the Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children (DISC-IV). Additionally, they filled in two behavioral questionnaires (CBCL and Strengths and Weaknesses of ADHD Symptoms and Normal Behavior (SWAN)). The twins filled in the Youth Self Report (YSR). Based on the outcome of the interview and questionnaires, twin pairs that were found eligible for the MRI experiments were invited. Both structural and functional MRI (color-stroop and flanker tasks) were performed. DNA was collected to confirm zygosity.

The NTR was established in 1987 and has enrolled around 120.000 twins and a roughly equal number of their relatives. The majority of twin families have participated one or more times in survey studies on a host of epidemiological variables including social demography, personality, lifestyle, somatic and mental health, and subsamples took part in biomaterial collection (e.g. DNA) and dedicated projects for e.g. neuropsychological, biomarker, and behavioral traits. The recruitment into the NTR is fully inclusive without any restrictions on enrolment. The NTR is committed to actively seek the commitment of its participants to science and their continued involvement in NTR research by maintaining a website, electronic newsletters, and the MijnNTR portal that provides personalized feedback to participants. The NTR resources, e.g. the longitudinal phenotyping, the extended pedigree structures, and the multi-generation genotyping allow for future twin-family research that will contribute to gene discovery, causality modelling, and studies of genetic and cultural inheritance of behavioral traits and mental and physical health.

Twins were selected based on their Child Behavior Checklist Attention Problems (CBCL-AP) scores obtained in the regular YNTR survey waves and divided into three groups: discordant pairs (one affected, one unaffected), concordant pairs (both affected) and control pairs (both unaffected). To determine the presence of ADHD, mothers of the participants were interviewed with the Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children (DISC-IV). Additionally, they filled in two behavioral questionnaires (CBCL and Strengths and Weaknesses of ADHD Symptoms and Normal Behavior (SWAN)). The twins filled in the Youth Self Report (YSR). Based on the outcome of the interview and questionnaires, twin pairs that were found eligible for the MRI experiments were invited. Both structural and functional MRI (color-stroop and flanker tasks) were performed.
