M160. INVESTIGATING STRUCTURAL CONNECTIVITY CORRELATES OF VERBAL MEMORY DEFICITS AMONG FIRST-EPISODE PSYCHOSIS PATIENTS
Notice bibliographique
Résumé
Abstract Background Verbal memory is one of the most affected cognitive domains in patients with schizophrenia and related psychoses. Several studies have found associations between cognitive abilities and white matter fractional anisotropy (FA) in schizophrenia; however, only a few tractography studies have investigated FA relative to verbal memory in patients with a first episode of psychosis (FEP) compared with healthy controls (HC). Although white matter tractography differences have been well established between chronic patients and HC, the direction of findings from FEP studies has been inconsistent. Thus, the present study aims to examine whole-brain white matter differences and its association with verbal memory in individuals with a FEP relative to HC using tractography. Methods Diffusion-weighted images were acquired on a 1.5T scanner for patients (n=65) and controls (n=54) at baseline. The Wechsler Memory Scale was used as a measure of verbal memory. Pre-processing was performed on a subject-by-subject basis using MRtrix. Diffusion tractography was generated using a probabilistic anatomically-constrained tractography algorithm, which constrains the reconstruction to specific biological priors. Furthermore, the spherical-deconvolution informed filtering of tractograms (SIFT) tool will be used to ensure the tractogram is biologically meaningful. This results in subject-specific connectomes defining the mean FA between two regions of interest that were defined using the Desikan- Killiany atlas. A linear model was used to test for main effect of group and main effect of verbal memory on white matter tract FA, covarying for age and sex. For both sets of analyses, results were corrected for multiple comparisons using false discovery rate (FDR). Results A significant main effect of group on whole-brain average FA was observed, with patients displaying lower average FA compared to healthy controls (Patients=0.291, controls=0.300, p<0.05). Whole-brain white matter tract FA analysis revealed that there are widespread differences between controls and individuals with a FEP. Group most strongly predicted white matter tract FA differences between left caudal anterior cingulate and left lateral orbitofrontal (patients mean FA=0.302, controls mean FA=0.342), left hippocampus and right isthmus cingulate (patient mean FA= 0.217 controls mean FA= 0.318), and finally left lingual and left rostral anterior cingulate (patients mean FA=0.162, controls mean FA= 0.249. However, none survived correction for multiple comparisons. Further, there was no significant association between verbal memory and white matter tract FA in FEP or HC. Discussion Findings from this study suggest there are some significant differences in whole-brain average FA between individuals experiencing a FEP and healthy controls. However, when analyzing whole-brain tract FA, none of the connections survived corrections for multiple comparisons. These findings might be limited by the scanner resolution included in this study, which may not capture more subtle differences. Nonetheless, these results are consistent with a cross-sectional study comparing healthy individuals to chronic and first-episode patients suggesting that modest differences are present early in the disease and increase as the disease progresses. We suggest that future studies analyze white matter tract using a longitudinal design to identify disease progression.

Le volet Gemma est une étiquette directe du modèle pour chaque travail de la base, lue sur la notice réduite au titre. Le volet Codex est un classifieur appris des 10 348 étiquettes directes de Codex et calibré sur les taux pondérés de l'échantillon; les champs sans appui suffisant ne portent aucun appel Codex. Le mode candidate est l'union des deux volets; le consensus est leur intersection. Ces sorties portent le statut machine_predicted_unvalidated et ne sont pas des étiquettes humaines.
