摘要
背景:足球是世界上最受欢迎的团队运动:目的:利用磁共振成像(MRI)技术全面检查足球运动员的大脑:研究涉及 65 名足球运动员和 62 名对照组。磁共振成像检查使用磁共振 1.5-T 系统(Optima MR 360; GE Medical Systems)进行。检查采用 3D Bravo、CUBE、FSEpropeller 和扩散加权成像(DWI)序列。从两侧额叶和枕叶的感兴趣区获得 1HMRS 信号:本研究以结构磁共振成像为基础,显示了足球运动员群体大脑的一些变化。研究结果显示,四名足球运动员的脑室系统不对称,顶枕叶区有蛛网膜囊肿,松果体囊肿。与对照组相比,足球运动员右额叶的 NAA/Cr 浓度较低,而右枕叶的 Glx/Cr 浓度较高。足球运动员枕叶的表观扩散系数值较低:结论:踢足球会导致大脑发生可测量的变化,这在被诊断为脑外伤的患者中是已知的。本研究结果填补了文献空白,提供的证据表明,踢足球可能会导致大脑发生变化,但不会出现脑震荡的临床症状。
Changes in the central nervous system in football players: an MRI study.
Background: Football (soccer) is the world's most popular team sport.
Purpose: To comprehensively examine the brain in football (soccer) players, with the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques.
Material and methods: The study involved 65 football players and 62 controls. The MR examinations were performed using MR 1.5-T system (Optima MR 360; GE Medical Systems). The examinations were carried out in the 3D Bravo, CUBE, FSEpropeller, and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) sequences. The 1HMRS signal was obtained from the volume of interest in the frontal and occipital lobes on both sides.
Results: The present study, based on structural MRI, shows some changes in the brains of the group of football players. The findings show asymmetry of the ventricular system in four football players, arachnoid cysts in the parieto-occipital region, and pineal cysts. NAA/Cr concentration in the right frontal lobe was lower in the football players than in the controls, and the Glx/Cr concentration in the right occipital lobe was higher. The apparent diffusion coefficient value is lower in football players in the occipital lobes.
Conclusion: Playing football can cause measurable changes in the brain, known to occur in patients diagnosed with traumatic brain injury. The present findings fill the gap in the literature by contributing evidence showing that playing football may lead to changes in the brain, without clinical symptoms of concussion.
