Relation between amygdala structure and function in adolescents with bipolar disorderJessica H Kalmar
Department of Psychiatry, Yale School of Medicine, 300 George Street, Suite 901, New Haven, CT 06511, USA
J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychiatry 48:636-42. 2009..We hypothesized that amygdala volume would be inversely associated with amygdala response to emotional stimuli, such that BD participants with the smallest amygdala volumes would exhibit the highest amygdala response...- Preliminary evidence for progressive prefrontal abnormalities in adolescents and young adults with bipolar disorderJessica H Kalmar
Department of Psychiatry, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut 06511, USA
J Int Neuropsychol Soc 15:476-81. 2009..While data should be interpreted cautiously due to modest sample size, this study provides preliminary evidence to support the presence of accelerated loss in VPFC and rostral PFC volume in adolescents/young adults with BD... - Sexually dimorphic features of vermis morphology in bipolar disorderFay Y Womer
Department of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06511, USA
Bipolar Disord 11:753-8. 2009..The cerebellar vermis is increasingly implicated in bipolar disorder (BD). In this study, we investigated vermis morphology in BD using a quantitative volumetric analysis... - Abnormal corpus callosum integrity in bipolar disorder: a diffusion tensor imaging studyFei Wang
Department of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut 06511, USA
Biol Psychiatry 64:730-3. 2008..In this study, we used complementary diffusion tensor imaging methods to study the structural integrity of the CC and localization of potential abnormalities in BD... - Role of variation in the serotonin transporter protein gene (SLC6A4) in trait disturbances in the ventral anterior cingulate in bipolar disorderMaulik P Shah
Department of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06511, USA
Neuropsychopharmacology 34:1301-10. 2009..Future treatment may be optimized for this BD subgroup by targeting the serotonergic system and the vACC... - Functional and structural connectivity between the perigenual anterior cingulate and amygdala in bipolar disorderFei Wang
Department of Psychiatry, Yale School of Medicine, 300 George Street, Suite 901, New Haven CT 06511, USA
Biol Psychiatry 66:516-21. 2009..This study investigates the potential disruptions in pACC-amygdala functional connectivity and associated abnormalities in white matter that provides structural connections between the two brain regions in BD... - Structure-function associations in hippocampus in bipolar disorderLara G Chepenik
Department of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, United States
Biol Psychol 90:18-22. 2012..These results support associations between morphological changes in hippocampus structure in BD and verbal memory impairment. They provide preliminary evidence pharmacotherapy may reverse hippocampus-related memory deficits... - Lateral ventricle volume and psychotic features in adolescents and adults with bipolar disorderErin E Edmiston
Department of Psychiatry, Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA
Psychiatry Res 194:400-2. 2011..This suggests LVV is a morphologic feature associated with psychosis in BD, present by adolescence... - Olfactocentric paralimbic cortex morphology in adolescents with bipolar disorderFei Wang

Department of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06511, USA
Br J Psychiatry 193:126-9. 2008..The cingulum is an important candidate structure for study in bipolar disorder as it provides substantial white matter connections within the corticolimbic neural system that subserves emotional regulation involved in the disorder... - Influence of vascular endothelial growth factor variation on human hippocampus morphologyHilary P Blumberg
Department of Psychiatry, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut 06511, USA
Biol Psychiatry 64:901-3. 2008..Here, an integrated genetic and neuroimaging approach was used to investigate whether VEGF variation influences hippocampus morphology in humans... - Childhood abuse and neglect and cognitive flexibility in adolescentsMarisa N Spann
