While retinal markers of PD are increasingly described, APS has been afforded less attention possibly owing to its lower prevalence. Here, we investigate retinal morphological differences in individuals with APS in a large real world cohort.</p></div><div><h3>Methods</h3><p>We conducted a cross-sectional analysis of the AlzEye study, a retrospective cohort where ophthalmic data of individuals attending Moorfields Eye Hospital between January 2008 and March 31st 2018 (inclusive) has been linked with systemic disease data through national hospital admissions. Retinal features were extracted from macula-centered color fundus photography (CFP) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) and compared between individuals with APS and those unaffected.

Numerous different biomarkers reflect the biological manifestations of ACEs across these systems and point to possible mechanisms of pathology following early adversity. Retinal layer thickness values and retinal microvasculature parameters, which may reflect central nervous system structure and function, have scarcely been explored in relation to early life stress in humans but could potentially be valuable indicators of early life adversity sequelae. Animal models of early life stress using rodents demonstrate that early adversity is associated with structural and functional alterations of the retina. Thus, given the widespread impact of ACEs across several different allostatic systems in the body, including the central nervous system of which the retina is a part, and evidence in animal models suggesting a relationship between early life stress and retinal alterations, the retina is likely to be affected by ACEs in humans. Retinal biomarkers may also represent especially feasible methods for exploring the effects of early adversity on the body, as they can be examined in vivo using optical coherence tomography (OCT), OCT angiography (OCTA), and electroretinography (ERG), which are quick and noninvasive retinal imaging and electrophysiological techniques. Therefore, future research should focus on the impact of ACEs on the retina in humans and what retinal changes predict in terms of symptoms, course, and functional impairment associated with negative physical and mental health outcomes.

We included randomized controlled studies and non-randomized studies of intervention in adults (&gt;18 years) with a DSM-IV/DSM-5 diagnosis of MDD, BD, or ADHD. We specifically included studies that reported the use of psychostimulants (e.g., methylphenidate [MPH]) and explored genetic associations with dopamine receptors and transporters (<em>DRD4, DRD2, SLC6A3)</em> reuptake inhibitors, norepinephrine transporters (<em>SLC6A2</em>) and serotonin transporters (<em>SLC6A4</em>).</p></div><div><h3>Results</h3><p>We identified and screened 1,479 abstracts and selected 17 articles for full-text review.

In this study, sixty-five ARMS subjects [of whom 17 (26.2%) later developed psychosis] were recruited, and we performed supervised linear support vector machine (SVM) with a variety of combinations of.modalities (clinical features, cognition, structural magnetic resonance imaging, eventrelated.potentials, and polyunsaturated fatty acids) to predict future psychosis onset. While single-modality SVMs showed a poor to fair accuracy, multi-modal SVMs revealed better predictions, up to 0.88 of the balanced accuracy, suggesting the advantage of multi-modal machine-learning methods for forecasting psychosis onset in ARMS.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":52767,"journal":{"name":"Biomarkers in Neuropsychiatry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666144624000078/pdfft?md5=2493a84bb92816fb52e5be58d85cd229&pid=1-s2.0-S2666144624000078-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140320430","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
