Distribution of Cortical Atrophy Associated with Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer's Disease: A Cross-Sectional Quantitative Structural MRI Study from PUMCH Dementia Cohort.
Background: Quantitative measures of atrophy on structural MRI are sensitive to the neurodegeneration that occurs in AD, and the topographical pattern of atrophy could serve as a sensitive and specific biomarker.
Objective: We aimed to examine the distribution of cortical atrophy associated with cognitive decline and disease stage based on quantitative structural MRI analysis in a Chinese cohort to inform clinical diagnosis and follow-up of AD patients.
Methods: One hundred and eleven patients who were clinically diagnosed with probable AD were enrolled. All patients completed a systemic cognitive evaluation and domain-specific batteries. The severity of cognitive decline was defined by MMSE score: 1-10 severe, 11-20 moderate, and 21-30 mild. Cortical volume and thickness determined using 3D-T1 MRI data were analyzed using voxelbased morphometry and surface-based analysis supported by the DR. Brain Platform.
Results: The male:female ratio was 38:73. The average age was 70.8 ± 10.6 years. The mild: moderate: severe ratio was 48:38:25. Total grey matter volume was significantly related to cognition while the relationship between white matter volume and cognition did not reach statistical significance. The volume of the temporal-parietal-occipital cortex was most strongly associated with cognitive decline in group analysis, while the hippocampus and entorhinal area had a less significant association with cognitive decline. Volume of subcortical grey matter was also associated with cognition. Volume and thickness of temporoparietal cortexes were significantly correlated with the cognitive decline, with a left predominance observed.
Conclusion: Cognitive deterioration was associated with cortical atrophy. Volume and thickness of the left temporal-parietal-occipital cortex were most important in early diagnosis and longitudinal evaluation of AD in clinical practice. Cognitively relevant cortices were left predominant.
期刊介绍：
Current Alzheimer Research publishes peer-reviewed frontier review, research, drug clinical trial studies and letter articles on all areas of Alzheimer’s disease. This multidisciplinary journal will help in understanding the neurobiology, genetics, pathogenesis, and treatment strategies of Alzheimer’s disease. The journal publishes objective reviews written by experts and leaders actively engaged in research using cellular, molecular, and animal models. The journal also covers original articles on recent research in fast emerging areas of molecular diagnostics, brain imaging, drug development and discovery, and clinical aspects of Alzheimer’s disease. Manuscripts are encouraged that relate to the synergistic mechanism of Alzheimer''s disease with other dementia and neurodegenerative disorders. Book reviews, meeting reports and letters-to-the-editor are also published. The journal is essential reading for researchers, educators and physicians with interest in age-related dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. Current Alzheimer Research provides a comprehensive ''bird''s-eye view'' of the current state of Alzheimer''s research for neuroscientists, clinicians, health science planners, granting, caregivers and families of this devastating disease.
