Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the relationship between cognitive functions and the brain's white matter structure using advanced imaging techniques, specifically Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DMRI).
- Researchers analyzed data from 125 healthy participants, correlating white matter integrity (measured via Quantitative Anisotropy) with scores on various cognitive tests assessing attention, executive function, episodic memory, and working memory.
- Significant correlations were found, indicating that the integrity of specific white matter tracts is closely linked to cognitive performance, which could aid in the early detection and intervention for cognitive disorders.
Background: Atrial fibrillation and flutter (AFF) are the most common cardiac arrhythmias globally, contributing to substantial morbidity and mortality. The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region face unique challenges in managing cardiovascular diseases, including AFF, due to diverse sociodemographic factors and healthcare infrastructure variability. This study aims to comprehensively evaluate the burden of AFF in MENA from 1990 to 2019.
