Bipolar disorder (BPD) is a psychiatric condition driving frequent mood swings between periodic extremes of happiness and depression in patients. In this study, a source-based morphometry (SBM) and voxel-based morphometry (VBM) analysis was utilized to measure the differences in the white matter (WM) and grey matter (GM) between euthymic children with BPD and typically developing (TD) children. We adapted both multivariate (SBM) and univariate (VBM) analysis in 20 children with BPD euthymia /remission and compared to the same number of TD age-matched children. The VBM did not reveal any increase in GM and WM voxel values in children with BPD. However, a decrease in the GM voxel values in the bilateral middle frontal and WM voxels in the left hippocampus, left caudate, left orbitofrontal and right inferior parietal cortices was identified. Conversely, SBM analysis in BPD displayed a high GM value in bilateral angular gyrus, bilateral inferior temporal, left supplementary motor area and left middle temporal region, while a low value was observed in left inferior and middle occipital, cerebellum, thalamus, left premotor area and left lingual gyrus. These findings suggested a crucial GM and WM alteration in multiple neural regions in BPD children even during sustained and substantial remission. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
