Structural covariance networks (SCN) describe the shared variation in morphological properties emerging from coordinated neurodevelopmental processes, This study evaluates the potential of SCNs as diagnostic biomarker for schizophrenia.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>We compared the diagnostic value of two SCN computation methods derived from regional gray matter volume (GMV) in 154 patients with a diagnosis of first episode psychosis or recurrent schizophrenia (PAT) and 366 healthy control individuals (HC). The first method (REF-SCN) quantifies the contribution of an individual to a normative reference group\u2019s SCN, and the second approach (KLS-SCN) uses a symmetric version of Kulback-Leibler divergence. Their diagnostic value compared to regional GMV was assessed in a stepwise analysis using a series of linear support vector machines within a nested cross-validation framework and stacked generalization, all models were externally validated in an independent sample (N<jats:sub>PAT<\/jats:sub>=71, N<jats:sub>HC<\/jats:sub>=74), SCN feature importance was assessed, and the derived risk scores were analyzed for differential relationships with clinical variables.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>We found that models trained on SCNs were able to classify patients with schizophrenia and combining SCNs and regional GMV in a stacked model improved training (balanced accuracy (BAC)=69.96%) and external validation performance (BAC=67.10%). Among all unimodal models, the highest discovery sample performance was achieved by a model trained on REF-SCN (balanced accuracy (BAC=67.03%). All model decisions were driven by widespread structural covariance alterations involving the somato-motor, default mode, control, visual, and the ventral attention networks. Risk estimates derived from KLS-SCNs and regional GMV, but not REF-SCNs, could be predicted from clinical variables, especially driven by body mass index (BMI) and affect-related negative symptoms.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title><jats:p>These patterns of results show that different SCN computation approaches capture different aspects of the disease. While REF-SCNs contain valuable information for discriminating schizophrenia from healthy control individuals, KLS-SCNs may capture more nuanced symptom-level characteristics similar to those captured by PCA of regional GMV.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.3389\/fpsyt.2025.1570797","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,9]],"date-time":"2025-06-09T05:25:07Z","timestamp":1749446707000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3389\/crossmark-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Exploring the predictive value of structural covariance networks for the diagnosis of schizophrenia"],"prefix":"10.3389","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Clara S.","family":"Vetter","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Annika","family":"Bender","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dominic B.","family":"Dwyer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Max","family":"Montembeault","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anne","family":"Ruef","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katharine","family":"Chisholm","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lana","family":"Kambeitz-Ilankovic","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Linda A.","family":"Antonucci","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stephan","family":"Ruhrmann","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joseph","family":"Kambeitz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marlene","family":"Rosen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Theresa","family":"Lichtenstein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anita","family":"Riecher-R\u00f6ssler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rachel","family":"Upthegrove","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Raimo K.
