Neuroimaging may predict response to cognitive remediation therapy and social skills training (CRT + SST) in schizophrenia. Identifying biological predictors of response is crucial for treatment decision making given not all patients respond to such interventions. Nineteen veterans with schizophrenia enrolled in an 8-week trial of CRT + SST. Ten participants completed diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) at baseline. Baseline fractional anisotropy (FA) in the superior longitudinal fasciculus (SLF) and overall average FA predicted improvements in visual-spatial working memory, and social cognition, respectively. Neuroimaging may be useful in identifying therapeutic targets in schizophrenia.

The article is motivated by an application to the EarlyBird cohort study aiming to explore how anthropometrics and clinical and metabolic processes are associated with obesity and glucose control during childhood. There is interest in inferring the relationship between dynamically changing and high-dimensional metabolites and a longitudinal response. Important aspects of the analysis include the selection of the important set of metabolites and the accommodation of missing data in both response and covariate values.

Predicting early treatment response in schizophrenia is pivotal for selecting the best therapeutic approach. Utilizing machine learning (ML) technique, we aimed to formulate a model predicting antipsychotic treatment outcomes. Data were obtained from 299 patients with schizophrenia from three multicenter, open-label, non-comparative clinical trials.
