Importance: While there is a general consensus that functional connectome pathology is a key mechanism underlying psychosis spectrum disorders, the literature is plagued with inconsistencies and translation into clinical practice is non-existent. This is perhaps because group-level findings may not be accurate reflections of pathology at the individual patient level.

Objective: To characterize inter-individual heterogeneity in functional networks and investigate if normative values can be leveraged to identify biologically less heterogeneous subgroups of patients.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigated the relationship between blood-based neural biomarkers and white matter neuroimaging biomarkers in collegiate athletes with sport-related concussions over one week after injury.
  • The research involved analyzing data from 77 athletes, using clinical assessments, blood samples, and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) at three different time points post-injury.
  • Findings indicated that total tau levels correlated significantly with microstructural changes in white matter, particularly in specific brain tracts, while the other biomarkers showed varied associations depending on the timing of assessment.
