Analysis included 280 dMRI scans from 66 English-speaking children, MRI acquired between ages 2-12, and reading ability assessed between ages 6-12. Most children performed in the average-above average range, with ~9% scoring below average, similar to population rates of reading disability.

Total choline in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) was associated with overall executive functioning in children with an without alcohol exposure, while glutamate+glutamine in the ACC was uniquely associated with inhibitory control in the alcohol-exposed group
