The theory suggests that prolonged auditory deprivation in presbycusis, including neural deafferentation, cortical reallocation, and atrophy, causes long-lasting changes and reorganization in brain structure and function. However, neurophysiological changes underlying the cognition-ear link have not been explored. In this study, we recruited 98 presbycusis patients and 60 healthy controls and examined the differences between the two groups in gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate (Glu) levels in bilateral auditory cortex, excitation–inhibition (E/I) balance (Glu/GABA ratio), dynamic functional network connectivity (dFNC), hearing ability and cognitive performance. Then, correlations with each other were investigated and variables with statistical significance were further analyzed using the PROCESS Macro in SPSS. GABA levels in right auditory cortex and Glu levels in bilateral auditory cortex were lower but E/I balance in right auditory cortex were higher in presbycusis patients compared to healthy controls. Hearing assessments and cognitive performance were worse in presbycusis patients. Three recurring connectivity states were identified after dFNC analysis: State 1 (least frequent, middle-high dFNC strength with negative functional connectivity), State 2 (high dFNC strength), and State 3 (most frequent, low dFNC strength). The occurrence and dwell time of State 3 were higher, on the other hand, the dwell time of State 2 decreased in patients with presbycusis compared to healthy controls. In patients with presbycusis, worse hearing assessments and cognition were correlated with decreased GABA levels, increased E/I balance, and aberrant dFNC, decreased GABA levels and increased E/I balance were correlated with decreased occurrence and dwell time in State 3. In the mediation model, the fractional windows, as well as dwell time in State 3, mediated the relationship between the E/I balance in right auditory cortex and episodic memory (Auditory Verbal Learning Test, AVLT) in presbycusis. Moreover, in patients with presbycusis, we found that worse hearing loss contribute to lower GABA levels, higher E/I balance, and further impact aberrant dFNC, which caused lower AVLT scores. Overall, the results suggest that a shift in E/I balance in right auditory cortex plays an important role in cognition-ear link reorganization and provide evidence for sensory deprivation theory, enhancing our understanding the connection between neurophysiological changes and cognitive impairment in presbycusis. In presbycusis patients, E/I balance may serve as a potential neuroimaging marker for exploring and predicting cognitive impairment.</p>","PeriodicalId":13019,"journal":{"name":"Human Brain Mapping","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2024-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/hbm.70067","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142582438","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Previous analyses have primarily focused on patients with relatively mild to moderate deficits. However, outcomes vary among survivors of severe strokes, and the mechanisms of recovery remain poorly understood. This study assesses the association between lesion-induced network disconnection and outcome after severe stroke. Thirty-eight ischaemic stroke patients underwent MRI brain imaging early after stroke and longitudinal clinical follow-up. Lesion information was integrated with normative connectome data to infer individual disconnectome profiles on a localized regional and region-to-region pathway level. Ordinal logistic regressions were computed to link disconnectome information to the modified Rankin Scale after 3–6 months. Disconnections of ipsilesional frontal, parietal, and temporal cortical brain areas were significantly associated with a worse motor outcome after a severe stroke, adjusted for the initial deficit, lesion volume, and age. The analysis of the underlying pathways mediating this association revealed location-specific results: For frontal, prefrontal, and temporal brain areas, the association was primarily driven by relatively sparse intrahemispheric disconnections. In contrast, the ipsilesional primary motor cortex, the dorsal premotor cortex, and various parietal brain regions showed a remarkable involvement of either frontoparietal intrahemispheric or additionally interhemispheric disconnections. These results indicate that localized disconnection of multiple regions embedded in the structural frontoparietal network correlates with worse outcomes after severe stroke. Specifically, primary motor and parietal cortices might gain particular importance as they structurally link frontoparietal networks of both hemispheres.

Furthermore, we also tested whether the two temporal characteristics of pain-elicited HDRs and their spatial patterns were associated with pain-related behaviors. We found that the spatial patterns of HDR peak latency and response duration could successfully discriminate pain from no-pain.

By fitting a pairwise maximum entropy model (pMEM), we constructed an energy landscape for the baseline and poststimulus conditions by fitting a pMEM. We defined dominant brain states (local minima) in the energy landscape with synergistic activation and deactivation patterns of large-scale functional networks. We calculated state dynamics including appearance probability, transitions and duration. The results showed that 1 Hz rTMS induced increased and decreased state probability, transitions and duration when delivered to the FRO and OCC targets, respectively. Most importantly, the shortest path and minimum cost between dominant brain states were altered after stimulation. The absolute sum of the costs from the source states to the destinations was lower after OCC stimulation than after FRO stimulation. In conclusion, our study characterized the dynamic trajectory of state transitions in the energy landscape and suggested that local rTMS can induce significant dynamic perturbation involving stimulated and distant functional networks, which aligns with the modern view of the dynamic and complex brain.

Combining recent advancements in brain-behavioural modelling, we mapped the development of stop-signal task (SST) performance and fronto-basal-ganglia maturation in a longitudinal sample of children aged 9–14 with and without ADHD. In a large sample of 135 ADHD and 138 non-ADHD children, we found that the ADHD group had poorer inhibitory control (i.e., longer stop-signal reaction times) across age compared to non-ADHD controls. When applying the novel parametric race model, this group effect was driven by higher within-subject variability (sigma) and higher number of extreme responses (tau) on stop trials. The ADHD group also displayed higher within-subject variability on correct responses to go stimuli. Moreover, we observed the ADHD group committing more task-based failures such as responding on stop trials (trigger failures) and omissions on go trials (go failures) compared to non-ADHD controls, suggesting the contribution of attentional lapses to poorer response inhibition performance. In contrast, longitudinal modelling of fixel-based analysis measures revealed no significant group differences in the maturation of fronto-basal-ganglia fibre cross-section in a subsample (74 ADHD and 73 non-ADHD children). Finally, brain-behavioural models revealed that age-related changes in fronto-basal-ganglia morphology (fibre cross-section) were significantly associated with reductions in the variability of the correct go-trial responses (sigma.true) and skew of the stop-trial distribution (tauS). However, this effect did not differ between ADHD and typically developing children. Overall, our findings support the growing consensus suggesting that attentional deficits subserve ADHD-related inhibitory dysfunction.

Despite its importance, there is little guidance on best QC practices and reporting procedures. The study of hippocampal subfields in vivo is a critical case for QC because of their small size, inter-dependent boundary definitions, and common artifacts in the MRI data used for subfield measurements. We addressed this gap by surveying the broader scientific community studying hippocampal subfields on their views and approaches to QC. We received responses from 37 investigators spanning 10 countries, covering different career stages, and studying both healthy and pathological development and aging. In this sample, 81% of researchers considered QC to be very important or important, and 19% viewed it as fairly important.
