Brain network structural connectome abnormalities among youth with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder at varying risk for bipolar I disorder: a cross-sectional graph-based magnetic resonance imaging study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is highly prevalent among youth with or at familial risk for bipolar-I disorder (BD-I), and ADHD symptoms commonly precede and may increase the risk for BD-I; however, associated neuropathophysiological mechanisms are not known. In this cross-sectional study, we sought to investigate brain structural network topology among youth with ADHD, with and without familial risk of BD-I. METHODS: We recruited 3 groups of psychostimulant-free youth (aged 10-18 yr), namely youth with ADHD and at least 1 biological parent or sibling with BD-I (high-risk group), youth with ADHD who did not have a first- or second-degree relative with a mood or psychotic disorder (low-risk group) and healthy controls. We used graph-based network analysis of structural magnetic resonance imaging data to investigate topological properties of brain networks. We also evaluated relationships between topological metrics and mood and ADHD symptom ratings. RESULTS: A total of 149 youth were included in the analysis (49 healthy controls, 50 low-risk youth, 50 high-risk youth). Low-risk and high-risk ADHD groups exhibited similar differences from healthy controls, mainly in the default mode network and central executive network. We found topological alterations in the salience network of the high-risk group, relative to both low-risk and control groups. We found significant abnormalities in global network properties in the high-risk group only, compared with healthy controls. Among both low-risk and high-risk ADHD groups, nodal metrics in the right triangular inferior frontal gyrus correlated positively with ADHD total and hyperactivity/impulsivity subscale scores. LIMITATIONS: The cross-sectional design of this study could not determine the relevance of these findings to BD-I risk progression. CONCLUSION: Youth with ADHD, with and without familial risk for BD-I, exhibit common regional abnormalities in the brain connectome compared with healthy youth, whereas alterations in the salience network distinguish these groups and may represent a prodromal feature relevant to BD-I risk.

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.
