- 认知神经科学 认知神经科学
背景情况:
- 大脑小血管疾病 (CSVD) 是一种常见的脑血管疾病,影响白质 (WM) 和深灰质.
- 认知障碍是CSVD的常见并发症,但潜在的神经生物学机制仍然不完全理解.
研究的目的:
- 在CSVD患者中调查与认知功能相关的同时发生的大脑结构和功能变化.
- 探索结构性赤字与CSVD中的功能变化之间的关系.
主要方法:
- 使用结构性和静止状态功能性MRI (fMRI),通过基于声素的形态学 (VBM) 分析灰质体积 (GMV),白质体积 (WMV) 和低频波动幅度 (ALFF).
- 30名正常对照组和65名心血管疾病患者 (33名有轻度认知障碍,32名没有) 进行了比较.
- 在CSVD患者中检查了认知得分和ALFF/VBM合在共同改变的区域之间的关联.
主要成果:
- 在三组中观察到GMV和WMV的显著差异.
- 在多个大脑区域发现了异常的ALFF,包括左侧门,罗兰 operculum,尾状和副海马圈.
- 在CSVD患者中,在左侧副海马回形,尾状和罗兰 operculum以及右上额叶中发现了结构缺陷 (VBM/WMV减少) 和功能过度激活 (ALFF增加) 的反转模式. 在左尾状体中注意到GMV和ALFF的独特增加.
- 异常的ALFF/VBM合与认知评估有显著的相关性.
结论:
- 脑神经疾病患者表现出大脑结构缺陷和功能激活的反向模式,表明结构功能脱.

Ischemic Stroke ll: Pathophysiology
An ischemic stroke occurs when a cerebral blood vessel becomes obstructed, most often by a thrombus or embolus, interrupting the delivery of oxygen and glucose to brain tissue. Because neurons rely on continuous aerobic metabolism, energy failure begins within minutes of reduced perfusion. The region receiving the least blood flow becomes the infarct core, an area of irreversible cellular death. Surrounding this core lies the penumbra, a zone of hypoperfused but still viable tissue that is...
Cerebral Edema ll: Pathophysiology
Vasogenic edema is a major form of cerebral edema characterized by abnormal accumulation of fluid in the brain’s extracellular space due to disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). The BBB is a specialized structure composed of endothelial cells connected by tight junctions, supported by astrocytic endfeet and a basement membrane. Under normal conditions, it tightly regulates the movement of ions, proteins, and solutes between the bloodstream and brain parenchyma. When this barrier loses...
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...
