Overview

Meta-analysis reveals decision making deficits in suicidal thoughts and behaviors, highlighting cognitive-behavioral therapy targets.

Key Points

  • This research investigates the neural alterations related to decision making and executive function in psychiatric patients with suicidal thoughts and behaviors.
  • Conducted systematic searches in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science databases.
  • Used anisotropic effect size version of seed-based d mapping (ASE-SDM) for quantitative meta-analysis.
  • Performed multimodal analysis of neural correlates during decision-making and executive function tasks.
  • Conducted sensitivity analyses to evaluate result robustness and addressed publication bias.
  • Patients with suicidal thoughts showed hyper-activations in the left anterior cingulate cortex and right insula during decision-making tasks.
  • Hypo-activations were observed in the left hippocampus in patients compared to healthy controls.
  • During executive function tasks, significant hyper-activations were noted in the left anterior cingulate cortex and left precentral gyrus.
