Background And Purpose: Patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) experience chronic intermittent hypoxia and sleep fragmentation, leading to brain ischemia and neurological dysfunction. Therefore, it is important to identify features that can differentiate patients with OSA from healthy controls (HC) and provide insights into the underlying brain alterations associated with OSA. This study aimed to distinguish patients with OSA from healthy individuals and predict clinical symptom alterations using cerebellum-whole-brain static and dynamic functional connectivity (sFC and dFC, respectively), with the cerebellum as the seed region.

Purpose: This study is to evaluate the altered number of functional connection (s) in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) by functional connectivity density (FCD), to investigate its relationship with cognitive function, and to explore whether these features could be used to distinguish OSA from healthy controls (HCs).

Methods: Seventy-six OSA patients and 72 HCs were included in the analysis. All participants underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging scan.

Introduction: Esketamine has demonstrated acute antidepressant effects in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). This study investigated whether these effects associate with reversible white matter fiber integrity recovery using diffusion imaging.

Method: Twenty patients with MDD and 20 healthy controls received 2-week esketamine treatment.

Purpose: To investigate dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) within the cerebellar-whole brain network and dynamic topological properties of the cerebellar network in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) patients.

Methods: Sixty male patients and 60 male healthy controls were included. The sliding window method examined the fluctuations in cerebellum-whole brain dFC and connection strength in OSA.

Purpose: Previous studies have demonstrated impaired cerebellar function in patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), which is associated with impaired cognition. However, the effects of OSA on resting-state functional connectivity (FC) in the cerebellum has not been determined. The purpose of this study was to investigate resting-state FC of the cerebellar subregions and its relevance to clinical symptoms in patients with OSA.

Article Synopsis
  • Lung adenocarcinoma is a major cancer threat, and understanding the presence of spread through air space (STAS) is key to managing it effectively, with this study focusing on comparing predictive capabilities of CT and F-FDG PET/CT imaging methods.
  • The research analyzed data from 100 patients who had surgery for lung adenocarcinoma, looking at various imaging and pathological features to assess which factors best predict STAS presence.
  • Results indicated that features from both CT and F-FDG PET/CT significantly differ between STAS-positive and negative lesions, revealing that maximum tumor diameter and SUVmax are critical indicators, with SUVmax showing higher predictive value than tumor diameter.

Objective: To investigate the dynamic change characteristics of dynamic functional connectivity (dFC) between the hippocampal subregions (anterior and posterior) and other brain regions in obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and its relationship with cognitive function, and to explore whether these characteristics can be used to distinguish OSA from healthy controls (HCs).

Methods: Eighty-five patients with newly diagnosed moderate-to-severe OSA and 85 HCs were enrolled. All participants underwent resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
