概括
长期COVID患者在特定的大脑区域显示皮质厚度和灰质体积增加,这挑战了以前的缩发现. 这些大脑变化与长期COVID幸存者的症状严重程度和认知得分相关.
科学领域:
- 神经科学是一个神经科学.
- 放射学 放射学是一门学科.
- 传染性疾病 传染性疾病
背景情况:
- SARS-CoV-2 感染 (PASC) 或长期COVID的急性后续影响大约7%的患者,20%的患者出现神经精神疾病症状.
- 长期COVID的神经成像研究对大脑结构变化产生了相互矛盾的结果,其中一些显示缩,另一些显示扩大.
研究的目的:
- 研究长期COVID患者和健康对照者之间的结构性大脑差异,特别是皮质边缘和背侧前额前额区域的灰色物质厚度.
- 探索长期COVID患者观察到的大脑结构变化和临床措施之间的关联.
主要方法:
- 使用结构磁共振成像 (MRI) 来比较灰色物质的厚度和体积.
- 专注于特定感兴趣的区域进行分析,包括尾部前部,地峡,后侧环状回形和面向中前线回形.
主要成果:
- 患有长期COVID的患者表现出后带带皮层和面皮层中额头回旋的皮质厚度增加.
- 在长期COVID患者的背带状和峡谷带状区域观察到较高的灰质体积.
- 皮层厚度和灰质量与长期COVID队列中的临床痴呆症评分和焦虑评分相关.
结论:
- 这些发现支持长期COVID中皮质缩的存在.
- 长期COVID中的结构性大脑变化与临床严重程度和神经精神症状有关.

Negative and Cognitive Symptoms of Schizophrenia
43
Negative symptoms of schizophrenia indicate a reduction or absence of typical behaviors and emotional responses found in healthy individuals, while positive symptoms reflect an excess or distortion of normal functioning.
Negative Symptoms
Negative symptoms of schizophrenia manifest as deficits in normal emotional and behavioral functioning, profoundly impacting daily life. Individuals with schizophrenia often display a flat affect, characterized by a near-total absence of emotional expression,...

Brain Imaging
208
Brain imaging technologies provide critical insights into both the structure and function of the human brain, enabling medical professionals and researchers to diagnose, study, and treat neurological disorders or psychiatric disorders more effectively.
These technologies include computerized axial tomography (CAT or CT scans), positron-emission tomography (PET scans), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), and Transcranial Magnetic...
