ABSTRACT
Disruptions in large-scale brain connectivity are hypothesized to contribute to psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, bipolar I disorder, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. However, high inter-individual variation among patients with psychiatric disorders hinders achievement of unified findings. To this end, we adopted a newly proposed method to resolve heterogeneity of differential structural covariance network in schizophrenia, bipolar I disorder, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. This method could infer individualized structural covariance aberrance by assessing the deviation from healthy controls. T1-weighted anatomical images of 114 patients with psychiatric disorders (schizophrenia n = 37; bipolar I disorder n = 37; attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder n = 37) and 110 healthy controls were analyzed to obtain individualized differential structural covariance network. Patients exhibited tremendous heterogeneity in profiles of individualized differential structural covariance network. Despite notable heterogeneity, patients with the same disorder shared altered edges at network level. Moreover, individualized differential structural covariance network uncovered two distinct psychiatric subtypes with opposite differences in structural covariance edges, that were otherwise obscured when patients were merged, compared with healthy controls. These results provide new insights into heterogeneity and have implications for the nosology in psychiatric disorders.
