Investigating the brain functional abnormalities underlying pain hypervigilance in chronic neck and shoulder pain: a resting-state fMRI study
ConclusionOur findings suggested that long-term repetitive nociceptive input caused by chronic pain further aggravates the pain intensity by impairing the vigilance-related pain processing within the anterior cingulate cortex in CNSP patients. (Source: Neuroradiology)

Altered whole-brain functional network in patients with frontal low-grade gliomas: a resting-state functional MRI study
ConclusionThe patients with unilateral frontal LGGs have altered global and nodal network metrics and decreased inter- and intra-hemispheric connectivity. These topological alterations may be involved in functional impairment and compensation of patients. (Source: Neuroradiology)

Intravoxel incoherent motion magnetic resonance imaging in the assessment of brain microstructure and perfusion in idiopathic normal-pressure hydrocephalus
ConclusionIVIM permits the acquisition of important non-invasive information about tissue and vascularization in iNPH patients. Enhanced perfusion in the lenticular and thalamic nuclei may suggest the role of re-established microvascular and glymphatic pathways, potentially elucidating the functional improvement in motor function after TT in iNPH patients.

Modeling diffusion-weighted imaging lesion expansion between 2 and 24 h after endovascular thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke
ConclusionWe observed substantial lesion expansion post-EVT whereby relative lesion expansion was consistent across eTICI categories, and greater absolute lesion expansion was associated with worse clinical outcome. Our findings suggest that alternate endpoints for cerebroprotectant trials may be feasible. (Source: Neuroradiology)

Decrease of 7T MR short-term effects with repeated exposure
ConclusionDuring multiple 7T examinations, subjects adapt to the strong static field. The short-term effects dizziness, inconsistent movement, nausea, and headache decrease over time as the MR sessions continue and experienced comfort increases. There was no significant difference in motion during the multiple fMRI examinations. (Source: Neuroradiology)

Clinical consequence of vessel perforations during endovascular treatment of acute ischemic stroke
ConclusionThe incidence of vessel perforation during EVT in this cohort was low, but has severe clinical consequences. Female patients and patients treated at distal occlusion locations are at higher risk. (Source: Neuroradiology)

Fetal brain MR angiography at 1.5 T: a feasible study
ConclusionAlthough artifacts were found in 74% of cases, MRA acquisitions were informative and of sufficient diagnostic quality in most studies. This technique may represent a valuable complimentary tool in CNS prenatal vascular studies. (Source: Neuroradiology)

Atrophy of the cholinergic regions advances from early to late mild cognitive impairment
ConclusionsOur data confirmed significant cholinergic atrophy differences between early and late stages of mild cognitive impairment. The impact of the APOE- ε4 allele on cholinergic atrophy varied between the LMCI and EMCI groups. (Source: Neuroradiology)
