Abstract

The cavum septum pellucidum (CSP) is a neurodevelopmental abnormality significantly more prevalent in subjects with schizophrenia (SCZ) than in healthy controls (HC). Using meta-analyses, we tested the hypotheses whether CSP would be more frequent in subjects with mood disorders when compared with HC or SCZ. We performed a search in MEDLINE and EMBASE followed by 10 meta-analyses of magnetic resonance imaging studies which examined the association of CSP in bipolar disorders (BD), major depressive disorder (MDD) or mood disorders (MD; considering MDD and BD combined) with either HC or SCZ. Nine studies were included, comprising 692 cases (363 with BD, 182 with MDD and 147 with MD), 463 with SCZ and 630 HC. CSP of any size was significantly associated with BD (OR = 2.07, 95% CI: 1.48-2.90) when compared with HC. Large CSP showed a trend to be associated with BD when compared with HC, but the association was not statistically significant (OR = 1.92, 95% CI 0.64-5.78). Large CSP was significantly associated with subjects with SCZ when compared with subjects with MD (OR = 0.57, 95% CI: 0.36-0.92). There was no association between CSP and MDD in comparison to HC or subjects with SCZ. Cortical structures are known to be altered in mood disorders. The present metanalysis found that certain midline brain abnormalities, such as CSP, are also associated with BD.
