White matter abnormalities in the fornix are linked to cognitive performance in SZ but not in BD disorder: An exploratory analysis with DTI deterministic tractography.

BACKGROUND In psychosis, white matter (WM) microstructural changes have been detected previously; however, direct comparisons of findings between bipolar (BD) and schizophrenia (SZ) patients are scarce. In this study, we employed deterministic tractography to reconstruct WM tracts in BD and SZ patients. METHODS Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) data was carried out with n=32 euthymic BD type I p...

Limbic and callosal white matter changes in euthymic bipolar I disorder: an advanced diffusion magnetic resonance imaging tractography study.

BACKGROUND White matter microstructural changes detected using diffusion tensor imaging have been reported in bipolar disorder. However, findings are heterogeneous, which may be related to the use of analysis techniques that cannot adequately model crossing fibers in the brain. We therefore sought to identify altered diffusion anisotropy and diffusivity changes using an improved high angular re...

Deficits of ‘Cognitive’ and ‘Affective’ Theory of Mind in Euthymic Bipolar Patients Type I

Objective: This study aimed to assess deficits of cognitive and emotional aspects of theory of mind in patients with bipolar disorder type 1 within a remission period. Methods: In this case- control study, 30 bipolar patients and 30 normal individuals were selected through Purposive sampling method for the purpose of the study. Then, they were matched based on their educational ...

Comparison of Limbic Regions FA Using Tractography-defined ROIs in AD and MCI

Introduction: The fornix and cingulum (limbic regions) are suspected of being affected by mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer Disease (AD). Recent studies have reported observable reductions in FA of the cingulum between normal and AD populations. Most studies resort to manual tracing of the anatomy in patient acquisition space. Objective isolation of the fornix and cingulum has remai...

Altered cingulum bundle microstructure in autism spectrum disorder.

OBJECTIVE Here, we examined the cingulum bundle, a long-range white matter tract mediating dorsal limbic connectivity, using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) tractography, in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) versus controls. We hypothesised that cingulum bundle microstructure would be altered in ASD, based on evidence implicating abnormal white matter connectivity in t...
