4. OBSESSIVE-COMPULSIVE
DISORDER (OCD)
• Obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) is an
anxiety disorder characterized by intrusive,
troubling thoughts or repetitive, compulsive
behaviors perceived as the products of one’s own
mind (American Psychiatric Association, 1994).
• FRONTAL-SUBCORTICAL CIRCUITRY
DYSFUNCTION
: unable to modulate impulsive behaviors
(Saxena, 1998)
• However, hypothesis-free analysis rarely has been
done.
Actually, he seems to be with OCPD

16. MOTIVATION
• Structuralnetwork over whole brain in patients with OCD is
still unknown.
• Corticalthickness-based network studies has been gained
attention.
• To investigate the structural brain network based on cortical
thickness is the motivation of this study.
18. SUBJECTS & IMAGES
• T1-weighted MRIs from 35 healthy control (HC) subjects and
32 obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) patients.
• Mean age: 23.94 ± 3.60 (HC); 24.81 ± 6.41(OCD)
• Gender: 24 M + 11 F (HC); 21 M + 11 F (OCD)
• All
32 OCDs were drug-free: 23 patients were drug-naive and
the other 9 patients were unmedicated by the scanning.
• All right-handed.
27. THICKNESS COMPARISON
thicness = 0 + 1 · age + 2 · gender + 3 · diagnosis + noise
• Testing the significance of diagnosis (group effect).
• Multiplecomparison correction by random field theory using
SurfStat MATLAB toolbox.
• You can download SurfStat from: http://galton.uchicago.edu/

28. Regions-of-interest (ROIs) as nodes
• Total 148 ROIs chosen
excepting “medial wall” and
“unknown” for each
hemisphere.

30. PARTIAL CORRELATION
• Tocompute partial correlation controlling age and gender, we
fit a GLM and use residual for [cij ] 2 R148⇥148
residual = thickness - ( c + c · age + c · gender)
0 1 2
cij = CORR(residuali , residualj )
31. STATISTICAL INFERENCES
• Local inference on correlations: OCD vs. HC
OCD HC
Z(cij - cij ) >h
where Z is Fisher transform, h is FDR threshold with q=0.01
• Global inference on undirected, unweighted graphs
: Binarization for adjacency matrix [aij ] 2 R148⇥148
aij = 1 if Z(cij ) > h, otherwise aij = 0
42. CONCLUSION
• We did NOT find any group difference by univariate tests on
cortical thickness between OCD and HC.
• However, weDID find significantly different correlations from
number of pairs of nodes.
• We also found differences in degree distributions.
• Threshold-free investigation such as graph-filtration is needed
as a further study.
Hello, my name is Seung-Goo Kim.\nI’m a PhD student at the department of Brain and Cognitive Sciences, SNU.\nand I’ve been working with Moo.\n\nToday, I’d like to talk about a brain network analysis based on cortical thickness,\nand its application to patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder.\n\nThe bottom line is that, this is a very simple analysis, and more like a preliminary result, so I hope many feedbacks from you.\n
These are my colleagues.\n\nMoo Chung formulated and implemented heat-kernel smoothing based on Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunction.\n\nWi Hoon JUNG, Joon Hwan JANG, Jun Soo KWON collected patients’ data and did the processing with FreeSurfer.\n
Now, I’m going to explain our application on OCD.\n
Obsessive-compulsive disorder is defined by obsessive thoughts or acts and/or compulsive behaviors.\n
But, quite interestingly, this is the only one study I could find, that examines global characteristic of brain network in OCD. These networks are also based on fMRI.\n\n//\n\nThese are gamma and lambda for various graph densities.\n\n//\n\nOverall densities, OCD shows higher gamma, relative clustering coefficients.\n
As I explained earlier, we quantifies the cortical thickness by the distance between two surfaces.\n
To compute correlation matrix, factoring out confounding effect of age and gender,\nwe correlated residuals of such a linear model.\n\nLocal inference is made simply using Fisher’s transformation and false discovery rate of .01.\n\nTo get a undirected, unweighted graph, we thresholded each positive correlation matrix at FDR .01.\n

Then the motivation of this study is to learn about global signature of structural network in OCD.\n
Now, let me show you how we did this application.\n
We used T1-weighted MRIs of 35 controls and 32 OCD patients.\n\nAge, gender, handness are matched.\n\nAll OCD patients were not taking drugs by the time of scanning.\n
Once you measure thickness in the original space, \n//\nyou can map it to a corresponding sphere.\n//\nThen by the curvature-mapping, it can be resampled onto another sphere,\n//\nthat corresponds to template surface.\n\n\n

Then to increase signal to noise ratio and statistical power, we apply heat kernel smoothing.\n\nThis smoothing technique is based on Laplace-Beltrami eigenfunction, which forms orthonormal basis on an arbitrary surface.\n\nShown here as Psy is a basis function over cortical surface. By multiplying exponential term, we can get a Kernel convoluted measure as a sum of weighted Fourier series.\n
By doing that, \n\\\\\nyou can map individual measures onto a common surface.\n

The smoothed thickness on each vertex is linearly modeled, and computed t-statistics with a contrast on the diagnosis term.\n\nMultiple comparison correction is made by random field theory using surfstat matlab toolbox.\n\n\n
Then using a ROI atlas available in FreeSurer,\nwe averaged measure into 148 ROIs.\n\\\\\nFor visualization, centriods within each ROI are used as nodes.\n

\n
Now, I present the result with an univariate analysis for comparison.\n
absolute diff=0.2 mm\nt-test without covariates: p=0.65\n\nShin: without covariates.\n

\n
The spatial dispositions of the previous network is like this.\n\\\\\nAnd the degree distribution is like this.\nActually we found significant differences at degree 1, 4 and others using ten thousand permutations.\n\nWe can see more densely connected nodes in OCD than in health controls.\n
Now I’ll show you changing networks by the varying threshold.\n
I think it is a quite interesting result, because it shows that we can find the significant differences from the network analysis, even when we cannot find any differences in the univariate analysis.\n\nActually it is a quite early step of study so far. What we did is fairly simple, so we are planning to examine further aspects of the networks in future.\n\nAlso I’d like to mention that this dataset has concurrent DTI measures. So it is a good chance to directly compare the thickness-based network to the DTI-based network.\n
