Alterations in Functional and Structural Connectivity in Pediatric-Onset Multiple Sclerosis
BACKGROUND Reduced white matter (WM) integrity is a fundamental aspect of pediatric multiple sclerosis (MS), though relations to resting-state functional MRI (fMRI) connectivity remain unknown. The objective of this study was to relate diffusion-tensor imaging (DTI) measures of WM microstructural integrity to resting-state network (RSN) functional connectivity in pediatric-onset MS to test the ...
متن کاملAlterations in Hippocampal Functional Connectivity in patients with Mesial Temporal Sclerosis
Introduction: Medial temporal sclerosis (MTS) is a form of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE). It is typically characterized by structural alterations in hippocampus (HC) and related mesial temporal lobe (MTL) network. Resting state functional connectivity (RSFC) is considered an ideal technique in quantifying the dysfunction and maladaptation in MTL network. It is well- dem...
متن کاملFunctional Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Pediatric- Onset Multiple Sclerosis: Relation to Structural Damage and Cognition
Pediatric Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is increasingly being recognized, with special concern being placed on how the demyelinating disease process affects normal brain development and the acquisition of cognitive abilities required for vocational success in adulthood. While pediatric MS patients are at risk for cognitive impairment early in their disease, many youth with pediatric MS appear to func...
متن کاملPronounced Structural and Functional Damage in Early Adult Pediatric-Onset Multiple Sclerosis with No or Minimal Clinical Disability
Pediatric-onset multiple sclerosis (POMS) may represent a model of vulnerability to damage occurring during a period of active maturation of the human brain. Whereas adaptive mechanisms seem to take place in the POMS brain in the short-medium term, natural history studies have shown that these patients reach irreversible disability, despite slower progression, at a significantly younger age tha...
متن کاملHippocampal Neuroinflammation, Functional Connectivity and Depressive Symptoms in Multiple Sclerosis
Healthy controls were recruited from a database of volunteers. For healthy volunteers, exclusion criteria included any medical, neurological, or psychiatric illness at screening or any concomitant pharmacological treatments. All structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images were inspected by an experienced neuroradiologist for unexpected findings of potential clinical significance or featu...
