Objective   To explore concomitant neuroimaging and genetic alterations in patients with schizophrenia with or without auditory verbal hallucinations (AVHs), and to discuss the use of pattern recognition techniques in the development of an objective index that may improve diagnostic accuracy and treatment outcomes for schizophrenia.Methods   The pilot study included patients with schizophrenia with AVHs (SCH-AVH group) and without AVHs (SCH-no AVH group). High throughput sequencing (HTS) was performed to explore RNA networks. Global functional connectivity density (gFCD) analysis was performed to assess functional connectivity (FC) alterations of the default mode network (DMN). Quantitative long noncoding (lnc) RNA and mRNA expression data were related to peak T values of gFCDs using Pearson’s correlation coefficient analysis.Results   Compared with the SCH-no AVH group ( n = 5), patients in the SCH-AVH group ( n = 5) exhibited differences in RNA expression in RNA networks that were related to AVH severity, and displayed alterations in FC (reflected by gFCD differences) within the DMN (posterior cingulate and dorsal-medial prefrontal cortex), and in the right parietal lobe, left occipital lobe, and left temporal lobe. Peak lncRNA expression values were significantly related to peak gFCD T values within the DMN.Conclusion   Among patients with schizophrenia, there are concomitant FC and genetic expression alterations associated with AVHs. Data from pattern recognition studies may inform the development of an objective index aimed at improving early diagnostic accuracy and treatment planning for patients with schizophrenia with and without AVHs.
