Over 90% of American adults own a smartphone, equipped with an array of sensors which can continuously and unobtrusively measure behaviors (e.g., activity levels, location, and phone usage patterns) which may predict increases in negative affect in real-time in individuals' daily lives. Sixty-eight adults with a primary mood or psychotic disorder completed daily emotion surveys for over a year, on average (mean 465 days; total surveys = 12,959). At the same time, semi-continuous collection of smartphone accelerometer, GPS location, and screen usage data, along with accelerometer tracking from a wrist-worn wearable device, was conducted for the duration of the study. A range of statistical approaches, including a novel personalized ensemble machine learning algorithm, were compared in their ability to predict states of heightened negative affect. A personalized ensemble machine learning algorithm outperformed other statistical approaches, achieving an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.72 (for irritability) -0.79 (for loneliness) in predicting different negative emotions. Smartphone location (GPS) variables were the most predictive features overall. Critically, there was substantial heterogeneity between individuals in the association between smartphone features and negative emotional states, which highlights the need for a personalized modeling approach. Findings support the use of smartphones coupled with machine learning to detect states of heightened negative emotions. The ability to predict these states in real-time could inform the development and timely delivery of emotionally beneficial smartphone-delivered interventions which could be automatically triggered via a predictive algorithm.</p>","PeriodicalId":23278,"journal":{"name":"Translational Psychiatry","volume":"15 1","pages":"174"},"PeriodicalIF":5.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12089529/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144102760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To provide an overview of progress in the field, the present review identified 25 rtfMRI insula studies and systematically reviewed key characteristics and findings in these studies. We found that rtfMRI-based NF training is efficient for modulating insula activity and its associated behavioral/symptom-related and neural changes. Furthermore, we also observed a maintenance effect of self-regulation ability and sustained symptom improvement, which is of importance for clinical application. However, training success of insula regulation was not consistently paralleled by behavioral/symptom-related changes, suggesting a need for optimizing the NF training protocol enabling more robust training effects. Principles including inclusion of a well-designed control group/condition, statistical analyses and reporting results following common criteria and a priori determination of sample and effect sizes as well as pre-registration are also highly recommended.

However, associations of threat, unpredictability, and deprivation in dimensional models of ELA with corticolimbic circuits were unclear. Previous studies have highlighted the effects of proximity, especially the distinctions between interpersonal and socioeconomic ELA, on children's neurodevelopment. This study first examined the associations between multiple ELA categories (i.e., interpersonal threat, socioeconomic threat, interpersonal unpredictability, socioeconomic unpredictability, interpersonal deprivation, and socioeconomic deprivation) and the developmental changes in resting-state functional connectivity (rsFC) of the frontolimbic and temporal-limbic circuits implicated in cognition and psychopathology, using data from the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study, which included four measurements from baseline (mean ± SD age, 119.13 ± 7.51 months; 2815 females) to 3-year follow-up (N = 5885). Controlling for concurrent ELA categories, interpersonal unpredictability and socioeconomic deprivation were associated with accelerated development of rsFC between CON/RTN-amygdala/hippocampus (Cingulo-opercular Network, Retrosplenial Temporal Network). Compared to girls, boys' corticolimbic circuits development was more sensitive to interpersonal threat. Changes in rsFC mediated the associations between interpersonal unpredictability/socioeconomic deprivation with decreased crystallized cognition, fluid cognition, and internalizing problems. Additionally, socioeconomic deprivation was associated with decreased crystallized cognition through interpersonal unpredictability and changes in rsFC between CON and bilateral amygdala/right hippocampus. This study emphasized interpersonal unpredictability and socioeconomic deprivation as key environmental factors affecting corticolimbic circuit development implicated in cognition and psychopathology.

Sleep quality was assessed using the Neuropsychiatric Inventory sleep subscale, which includes ratings of frequency, severity, and their product, with higher scores indicating poorer sleep quality. Baseline and follow-up demographics, sleep indices, plasma NFL levels, and cognition scores (including Mini-Mental State Examination [MMSE], Montreal Cognitive Assessment [MoCA], Alzheimer's Disease Assessment Scale-Cognitive Subscale [ADAS13], Clinical Dementia Rating Scale-Sum of Boxes [CDRSB], Executive Function [EF], Language [LAN], and Memory [MEM]) were also collected. Multivariable linear regression examined the associations between baseline sleep quality, plasma NFL, and cognition, as well as the relationship between sleep quality and longitudinal cognitive decline, calculated using linear mixed-effects models. Mediation analysis evaluated the role of plasma NFL in the sleep-cognition association. Multiple testing significance was corrected using false discovery rate, with results presented as Q-values. Poor sleep quality scores were associated with elevated plasma NFL levels (β: 0.055 to 2.645, P < 0.05), poorer cognition (ADAS13, CDRSB, EF, LAN, MEM; β: -0.188 to 1.279, Q < 0.05), and accelerated longitudinal cognitive decline (MoCA; β: -0.005, Q < 0.05) in both models, with sensitivity analyses supporting these findings. Furthermore, plasma NFL levels partially mediated the relationship between sleep quality and both baseline cognition (ADAS13, CDRSB, LAN, MEM; P < 0.05) and longitudinal cognitive decline (MoCA; P < 0.05), with mediation proportions ranging from 9.2% to 26.7%.

These alterations may ultimately contribute to perceptual bias and anhedonia. To characterize blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal of perceptual processing, we investigated temporally independent fMRI signal components related to naturalistic stimulus processing in 39 patients with MDD and 36 healthy subjects. Leveraging the capability of multi-echo data to detect BOLD activity changes, we extracted physiologically meaningful group temporal components. For each component that exhibited a significant correlation with the movie content, we localized its underlying brain network and assessed MDD-associated alterations. Two components exhibited significant group differences; one was associated with auditory features (sound pressure level) and one with visual features (temporal contrast of intensity). Notably, these deficits in MDD localized primarily to higher-order processing areas, such as the dorsal prefrontal cortex and insula, rather than primary sensory cortices. For the visual feature component, additional group differences emerged in non-visual primary sensory cortices (auditory and somatosensory) as well as major hubs of the motor system. Our findings support the hypothesis that basic sensory processing deficits represent an inherent feature of MDD which may contribute to anhedonia and negative perceptual bias. These deficits are primarily confined to higher-order processing units, as well as cross-modal primary sensory cortices indicating predominant dysfunction of top-down control and multisensory integration.
