Abstract Background Minor physical anomalies (MPAs) are congenital morphological abnormalities linked to disruptions of fetal development. MPAs are common in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) and psychosis spectrum disorders (PS) and likely represent a disruption of early embryologic development that may help identify overlapping mechanisms linked to psychosis in these disorders. Methods Here, 2D digital photographs were collected from 22q11DS (n = 150), PS (n = 55), and typically developing (TD; n = 93) individuals. Photographs were analyzed using two computer-vision techniques: (1) DeepGestalt algorithm (Face2Gene (F2G)) technology to identify the presence of genetically mediated facial disorders, and (2) Emotrics—a semi-automated machine learning technique that localizes and measures facial features. Results F2G reliably identified patients with 22q11DS; faces of PS patients were matched to several genetic conditions including FragileX and 22q11DS. PCA-derived factor loadings of all F2G scores indicated unique and overlapping facial patterns that were related to both 22q11DS and PS. Regional facial measurements of the eyes and nose were smaller in 22q11DS as compared to TD, while PS showed intermediate measurements. Conclusions The extent to which craniofacial dysmorphology 22q11DS and PS overlapping and evident before the impairment or distress of sub-psychotic symptoms may allow us to identify at-risk youths more reliably and at an earlier stage of development. |
