Spatial Patterning of Tissue Volume Loss in Schizophrenia Reflects Brain Network Architecture
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: There is growing recognition that connectome architecture shapes cortical and subcortical gray matter atrophy across a spectrum of neurological and psychiatric diseases. Whether connectivity contributes to tissue volume loss in schizophrenia in the same manner remains unknown. METHODS: Here, we relate tissue volume loss in patients with schizophrenia to patterns of structural and functional connectivity. Gray matter deformation was estimated in a sample of 133 individuals with chronic schizophrenia (48 women, mean age 34.7 ± 12.9 years) and 113 control subjects (64 women, mean age 23.5 ± 8.4 years). Deformation-based morphometry was used to estimate cortical and subcortical gray matter deformation from T1-weighted magnetic resonance images. Structural and functional connectivity patterns were derived from an independent sample of 70 healthy participants using diffusion spectrum imaging and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging. RESULTS: We found that regional deformation is correlated with the deformation of structurally and functionally connected neighbors. Distributed deformation patterns are circumscribed by specific functional systems (the ventral attention network) and cytoarchitectonic classes (limbic class), with an epicenter in the anterior cingulate cortex. CONCLUSIONS: Altogether, the present study demonstrates that brain tissue volume loss in schizophrenia is conditioned by structural and functional connectivity, accounting for 25% to 35% of regional variance in deformation.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
