Effect of cognitive enhancement therapy for early course schizophrenia on gray matter volume: A confirmatory multisite randomized clinical trial.

BACKGROUND: Cognitive Enhancement Therapy (CET) is an evidence-based cognitive remediation intervention for early course schizophrenia with established benefits for cognition. CET may protect against broad temporolimbic gray matter volume loss associated with cognitive improvement, but this finding has yet to be replicated. This research reexamined if CET protects against temporolimbic gray matter volume loss in an independent and larger multisite early course sample, and if this neuroprotective effect predicts cognitive and social adjustment improvement. METHODS: Ninety-nine participants with early course schizophrenia completed MRI, cognitive, and social adjustment assessments at baseline, 9 (mid-treatment), and 18 (end of treatment) months. Linear mixed-effects models examined the differential impact of CET (n = 56) compared to Enriched Supportive Therapy (n = 43) on temporolimbic gray matter volume in regions-of-interest (ROIs) that previously demonstrated CET-related neuroprotection (primary ROIs), as well as frontotemporal ROIs outlined in the first trial (secondary ROIs). RESULTS: The right rostral anterior cingulate was the only primary ROI to demonstrate a significant group × time interaction, but was unrelated to cognitive and social adjustment change. No secondary ROIs exhibited a differential treatment effect. CONCLUSION: This confirmatory trial did not recapitulate the observed broad pattern of CET-related temporolimbic gray matter volume neuroprotection. Consistent with the larger literature demonstrating limited evidence of cognitive remediation effects on the brain in schizophrenia, these findings underscore the need for continued investigation of CET-related changes with other neuroimaging modalities, especially given its established cognitive benefits. Such information is critical for cognitive remediation optimization based on validated therapeutic mechanisms.

Treatment-related associations of nucleus accumbens connectivity within mesocorticolimbic circuits in depression.

Pharmacological treatment remains a mainstay in managing depression, yet the neural correlates associated with treatment response remain incompletely understood. This study used multimodal neuroimaging to examine nucleus accumbens (NAc)-centered structural and functional alterations associated with fluoxetine and Shugan Jieyu Capsule (SG), a traditional Chinese medicine, in patients with mild-to-moderate depression (MMD). Sixty patients were randomized to an 8-week course of fluoxetine or SG. Depression severity was assessed using the 24-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-24), and structural and functional MRI scans were acquired at baseline and endpoint. Both treatments were associated with significant symptom improvement. Neuroimaging analyses revealed structural and functional alterations involving the NAc. Changes in NAc-amygdala connectivity showed an exploratory association with symptom improvement in the SG group, whereas changes in NAc-rostral anterior cingulate cortex connectivity were associated with symptom improvement in the fluoxetine group and remained significant after correction for multiple comparisons. In addition, remitters exhibited stronger baseline connectivity between the NAc and ventral tegmental area and between the NAc and middle frontal gyrus compared with non-remitters. These findings suggest that NAc-centered connectivity may be relevant to treatment-related neural changes in depression and may inform future research on imaging-based candidate markers of treatment response and personalized treatment approaches. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The study is registered in https://www.chictr.org.cn/ with a registration number ChiCTR1900024988 (date: 08.06.2019).
