Objective:To explore the spatial correlation between gray matter volume (GMV) changes and neurotransmitter receptors/transporters in patients with first-episode schizophrenia (FES) .Methods:Fifty-four FES patients(FES group) and fifty-nine healthy controls (HC group) were selected from June 2014 to May 2020 in the Psychiatry Department of Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University. Structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI) was conducted on all subjects. Differences of GMV were compared across 400 cortical regions and 32 subcortical regions. Based on the positron emission tomography(PET) data from Neuromaps, which provides the density of 19 different neurotransmitter receptors and transporters, Spearman correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the spatial correlation between GMV changes and neurotransmitter systems.Results:Compared to the HC group, FES group exhibited significant GMV reductions in widespread cortical (90/400) and subcortical (6/32) regions (all FDR-corrected P<0.05). The effect size of GMV reduction (Cohen’s d) showed significant positive correlations with the density of 5-hydroxytryptamine 1a(5HT1a) ( r=0.400, Pspin=0.002), γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptor(GABA A)( r=0.307, Pspin=0.002), and metabotropic glutamate receptor 5(mGluR5) ( r=0.275, Pspin=0.020) receptors (all FDR-corrected P<0.05). Conclusion:GMV reductions in a wide range of brain regions existed in patients with FES. There are significant correlations between 5HT1a, GABA A and mGluR5 receptors and gray matter reduction in patients with FES. The disorder of these neurotransmitter receptors may be the potential neurobiological mechanism of gray matter structural abnormalities in the early stage of schizophrenia.

Objective To conduct a cross-sectional study on the relationship between the serum uric acid(sUA)to high density lipoprotein-cholesterol(HDL-C)ratio(UHR)and female infertility.Methods We analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey(NHANES)2013-2018 cycle,examining 2,963 women aged 18 to 45 years.A multivariable Logistic regression model was used to assess the association between UHR and infertility,adjusting for various confounding factors.The study also explored interactions and dose-response relationships through subgroup analyses and restricted cubic spline(RCS)models,and evaluated the predictive value of UHR for infertility by using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.Results The results showed that the prevalence of infertility was significantly higher among women with elevated UHR.Baseline characteristics revealed that the mean UHR in women with infertility(9.68±4.23)was significantly higher than in those without infertility(8.7±3.81,P<0.001).Multivariable Logistic regression analysis indicated that women in the highest quartile(Q4)of UHR had a significantly increased likelihood of infertility compared to those in the lowest quartile(Q1),with adjusted odds ratios(ORs)ranging from 1.61(95% CI:1.14-2.28)to 1.98(95% CI:1.42-2.78)across different models(P for trend<0.001).Subgroup analyses demonstrated that these associations were consistent across different age groups,body mass index(BMI)categories,and racial groups.The RCS model showed a significant linear dose-response relationship between UHR and infertility risk(nonlinear P=0.03,overall association P<0.001).Additionally,ROC analysis indicated that UHR had a moderate ability to discriminate infertility status,with an area under the curve(AUC)of 0.570.Conclusion A higher UHR is significantly associated with an increased risk of female infertility,and UHR has the potential to serve as a predictive biomarker for the risk of female infertility.
