Title: Aberrant inhibitory control as a transdiagnostic dimension of mental disorders - A meta-analysis of the antisaccade task in different psychiatric populations. Author: Breuer F, Meyhöfer I, Lencer R, Sprenger A, Roesmann K, Schag K, Dannlowski U, Leehr EJ. Journal: Neurosci Biobehav Rev; 2024 Oct; 165():105840. PubMed ID: 39103067. Abstract: This meta-analysis examined inhibitory control performance in the antisaccade task across mental disorders. Following PRISMA guidelines, we analyzed data from k = 146 studies (n = 13,807 participants) on antisaccade performance. Effect sizes were estimated using random-effects models and restricted maximum-likelihood estimation, with robustness tests for study heterogeneity and publication bias. Most disorders displayed elevated error rates, with schizophrenia showing the greatest impairments, followed by autism spectrum disorder, bipolar disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Small to medium impairments were also found in eating disorders, major depressive disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder and substance use disorder. Results were robust against corrections for publication bias and largely unaffected by confounding variables. Prolonged latencies were observed in schizophrenia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, bipolar disorder and obsessive compulsive disorder, with smaller and less robust effect sizes. Results indicate inhibitory control deficits in the antisaccade task across mental disorders, especially evident for error rates. While present in most disorders, results imply varying degrees of impairments, ranging from small to large in effect sizes, with largest impairments in schizophrenia.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
