Major negative life events, such as trauma exposure, can play a key role in igniting or exacerbating psychopathology. However, few disorders are diagnosed with respect to precipitating events, and the role of these events in the unfolding of new psychopathology is not well understood. The authors conducted a multisite transdiagnostic longitudinal study of trauma exposure and related mental health outcomes to identify neurobiological predictors of risk, resilience, and different symptom presentations.
A total of 146 participants (discovery cohort: N=69; internal replication cohort: N=77) were recruited from emergency departments within 72 hours of a trauma and followed for the next 6 months with a survey, MRI, and physiological assessments.
Task-based functional MRI 2 weeks after a motor vehicle collision identified four clusters of individuals based on profiles of neural activity reflecting threat reactivity, reward reactivity, and inhibitory engagement. Three clusters were replicated in an independent sample with a variety of trauma types. The clusters showed different longitudinal patterns of posttrauma symptoms.
These findings provide a novel characterization of heterogeneous stress responses shortly after trauma exposure, identifying potential neuroimaging-based biotypes of trauma resilience and psychopathology.
重大生活负性事件,如创伤暴露,可能在引发或加重精神病理学方面发挥关键作用。然而,很少有疾病是根据诱发事件来诊断的,这些事件在新的精神病理学发展中的作用也不为人所理解。作者进行了一项多中心跨诊断的创伤暴露和相关心理健康结果的纵向研究,以确定风险、弹性和不同症状表现的神经生物学预测因子。
共有 146 名参与者(发现队列:N=69;内部复制队列:N=77)在创伤发生后 72 小时内从急诊室招募,并在接下来的 6 个月内进行调查、MRI 和生理评估。
在机动车碰撞后 2 周进行的任务型功能 MRI ,根据反映威胁反应性、奖励反应性和抑制性参与的神经活动模式,将个体分为四个聚类。三个聚类在具有多种创伤类型的独立样本中得到了复制。聚类表现出不同的创伤后症状纵向模式。
这些发现为创伤暴露后不久的异质应激反应提供了一个新的特征描述,确定了创伤弹性和精神病理学的潜在基于神经影像学的生物型。
