Anterior cingulate volume in adolescents with first-presentation borderline personality disorder
Abstract
Reports of volumetric abnormalities in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) in adults with established borderline personality disorder (BPD) are inconsistent, and it is not known whether such abnormalities are present early in the disorder. We aimed to investigate ACC volume in a first-presentation teenage BPD sample with minimal exposure to treatment. Fifteen female BPD patients and 15 healthy female control participants underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanning. ACC volumes were estimated using a reliable method that accounts for inter-individual variation in sulcal morphology, and measurements were compared between the two groups. Analysis of variance revealed a decrease in volume of the left ACC in BPD patients compared with control participants. This volumetric change was correlated with parasuicidal behavior and impulsivity. A measure of ACC volume asymmetry was also correlated with fear of abandonment symptoms. Our results suggest that ACC volumetric abnormalities early in the course of BPD might be related to clinical correlates of the disorder. Longitudinal studies are needed to examine the nature of this abnormality over the course of the disorder.

In the citing paper
“Among adolescents with BPD, a greater number of lifetime parasuicidal behaviors in the past 6 months associates with smaller left ACC volume (69), consistent with findings comparing past-year self-injurers and healthy youth (64).”

In the citing paper
“By contrast, NSSI research reveals ACC structural alterations (64, 69) as well as disruptions in amygdala and ACC connectivity (96), which contributes to hyperarousal and reduced impulse control—central features of NSSI (110, 111).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
