Longitudinal Associations Between Self-reported Schizotypy Dimensions and White Matter Integrity Development During Adolescence.
Article in Schizophrenia bulletin, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundAlterations of white matter microstructure have been reported in the psychosis spectrum. However, the development of these alterations during preclinical stages remains poorly understood. The framework proposed by schizotypy research as the personality base for liability to develop psychosis spectrum disorders offers 3 interconnected dimensions thought to impact neurodevelopment, affording an opportunity to investigate premorbid risk.
designIn this study, 102 typically developing individuals aged between 12 and 20 y.o. at baseline were scanned longitudinally between 1 and 4 times, and schizotypy was assessed at each visit. Ten white matter tracts were reconstructed using TRACULA, and mixed model regression was used to characterize age-related changes in main diffusion parameters (ie, fractional anisotropy [FA]). Estimated longitudinal trajectories of the 3 dimensions of schizotypy were tested for different trajectories of diffusion parameters as a function of age.
resultsPositive schizotypy trajectory was the most strongly decreased when FA in the anterior thalamic radiation (atr-FA) increased in young adults compared with a moderate decrease in younger participants. Furthermore, in adolescents, disorganized schizotypy followed a steep increase when atr-FA increased, while in the older participants, it decreased as a function of atr-FA. Independent of age, intraindividual positive schizotypy was further longitudinally negatively associated with FA in the cingulate gyrus, and disorganized schizotypy was positively associated with FA in the superior longitudinal fasciculus.
conclusionsGiven that abnormalities in fronto-thalamo-cingulate subcircuit are present in schizophrenia and converters to psychosis, our results support the hypothesis of schizotypy as a personality base risk to develop psychosis.
