ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Schizophrenia and bipolar disorder have been linked to alterations in the functional activity and grey matter volume of some brain areas, reflected in impaired regional homogeneity and aberrant voxel-based morphometry. However, because of variable findings and methods used across studies, identifying patterns of brain alteration in schizophrenia and bipolar disorder has been difficult.METHODS:
We conducted a meta-analysis of differences in regional homogeneity and voxel-based morphometry between patients and healthy controls for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder separately, using seed-based d mapping.RESULTS:
We included 45 publications on regional homogeneity (26 in schizophrenia and 19 in bipolar disorder) and 190 publications on voxel-based morphometry (120 in schizophrenia and 70 in bipolar disorder). Patients with schizophrenia showed increased regional homogeneity in the frontal cortex and striatum and the supplementary motor area; they showed decreased regional homogeneity in the insula, primary sensory cortex (visual and auditory cortices) and sensorimotor cortex. Patients with bipolar disorder showed increased regional homogeneity in the frontal cortex and striatum; they showed decreased regional homogeneity in the insula. Patients with schizophrenia showed decreased grey matter volume in the superior temporal gyrus, inferior frontal gyrus, cingulate cortex and cerebellum. Patients with bipolar disorder showed decreased grey matter volume in the insula, cingulate cortex, frontal cortex and thalamus. Overlap analysis showed that patients with schizophrenia displayed decreased regional homogeneity and grey matter volume in the left insula and left superior temporal gyrus; patients with bipolar disorder displayed decreased regional homogeneity and grey matter volume in the left insula.LIMITATIONS:
The small sample size for our subgroup analysis (unmedicated versus medicated patients and substantial heterogeneity in the results for some regions could limit the interpretability and generalizability of the results.CONCLUSION:
Patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder shared a common pattern of regional functional and structural alterations in the insula and frontal cortex. Patients with schizophrenia showed more widespread functional and structural impairment, most prominently in the primary sensory motor areas.
