概括
在次级渐进性多发性硬化症 (SPMS) 中,血管并发症和较高的并发症负担与灰质体积的减少有关. 然而,这些因素在两年内并没有显著影响大脑缩率.
科学领域:
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 神经学 神经学
- 放射学 放射学是一门学科.
背景情况:
- 血管风险因素和并发症与多发性硬化症 (MS) 中的大脑缩有关.
- 在二次进展性多发性硬化症 (SPMS) 中,血管并发症 (VCM) 和大脑缩之间的联系不太清楚.
- 这项研究调查了VCM,并发症负担和SPMS中大脑缩之间的关联.
研究的目的:
- 为了检查VCM和SPMS中大脑缩之间的横截面和纵向关联.
- 评估整体并发症负担对SPMS中大脑缩的影响.
- 为了确定VCM或并发症的数量是否会影响随着时间的推移大脑缩的速度.
主要方法:
- 从MS-SMART试验中对445名参与者的特异分析.
- 记录了血管并发症 (高血压,高脂血症) 和其他并发症.
- 使用SIENAX和SIENA计算区域和整个大脑体积,以及缩率;多重线性回归被用于分析.
主要成果:
- VCM (高血压,高脂血症) 与皮质灰质体积的横截面下降有关.
- 较高的并发症数 (≥2) 也与皮质灰质体积减少有关.
- 在96周内,VCM/并发症数量与全脑或灰质缩率之间没有发现显著的关联.
结论:
- 患有SPMS和VCM或增加并发症负担的个体表现出大脑全脑和皮层灰质体积的减少.
- 没有发现VCM或并发症负担对随后2年的脑缩率有显著影响.

Hemorrhagic Stroke l: Introduction
A hemorrhagic stroke is an acute neurological event that occurs when a weakened cerebral blood vessel ruptures, allowing blood to accumulate within or around the brain. The sudden release of blood forms a focal hematoma that increases intracranial pressure, displaces neural tissue, and can obstruct cerebrospinal fluid pathways. These effects may be compounded by intraventricular extension of the hemorrhage, cerebral edema, or compression of adjacent structures, all of which contribute to...
Hemorrhagic Stroke ll: Pathophysiology
A hemorrhagic stroke develops when a cerebral blood vessel ruptures, allowing blood to escape into the surrounding brain tissue, as in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), or into the subarachnoid space, as in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Because the skull is a rigid compartment, the sudden presence of extravascular blood rapidly increases intracranial pressure and compresses adjacent neural structures, leading to immediate tissue injury and impaired cerebral perfusion.Mass Effect and Primary...
Multiple Sclerosis l: Introduction
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that affects the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. It is an inflammatory demyelinating disorder and a leading cause of neurological disability in young adults.EpidemiologyMS commonly begins between 20 and 40 years of age and is twice as common in women. Its exact cause remains unclear, but genetic susceptibility contributes, with higher risk in first-degree relatives and identical twins. A greater...
Alzheimer Disease l: Introduction
Alzheimer disease is a chronic, progressive, and irreversible neurodegenerative disorder and the most common cause of dementia in older adults. It leads to gradual neuronal loss, causing cognitive decline, behavioral changes, and loss of functional independence.Risk Factors and EtiologyThe disease is multifactorial. Age is the strongest risk factor, with prevalence doubling every 5 years after age 65. Genetic factors include mutations in genes such as APP, PSEN1, and PSEN2, which are associated...
Alzheimer Disease ll: Pathophysiology
Alzheimer disease involves structural changes in the brain that begin long before symptoms appear. The most distinctive features are extracellular neuritic plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles.Neuritic plaques form in the cerebral cortex and around blood vessels. These plaques contain a dense core of beta-amyloid (Aβ)—a toxic protein fragment that clumps outside neurons. The core is surrounded by damaged neuronal extensions, as well as reactive astrocytes and microglia. Abnormal...
Dementia l: Introduction
Dementia is an acquired, progressive syndrome characterized by a decline in multiple cognitive domains severe enough to impair daily functioning and reduce independence. Although memory loss is a central feature, the diagnosis requires additional deficits involving language, executive function, visuospatial skills, judgment, calculation, or abstract reasoning. These cognitive impairments reflect underlying neurodegenerative or vascular processes that gradually disrupt neuronal networks...
