What has brain diffusion magnetic resonance imaging taught us about chronic primary pain: a narrative review.
Pain

Chronic pain is a pervasive and debilitating condition with increasing implications for public health, affecting millions of individuals worldwide. Despite its high prevalence, the underlying neural mechanisms and pathophysiology remain only partly understood. Since its introduction 35 years ago, brain diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has emerged as a powerful tool to investigate changes in white matter microstructure and connectivity associated with chronic pain.

Background: Subacromial impingement syndrome (SIS) is a common cause of shoulder pain and dysfunction. Modified posterior shoulder stretching exercises have been proposed as a treatment method aimed at improving shoulder function and reducing pain in patients with SIS. However, the efficacy of these exercises remains controversial, necessitating a systematic meta-analysis to comprehensively evaluate their effectiveness.

January 2025
Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, School of Medicine, Stanford University, 401 Quarry Road, Stanford, CA, 94305, USA.
Background: Intermittent hypoxia, a consequence of sleep-disordered breathing (SDB), may contribute to an increased risk of cognitive decline. However, the association between SDB and cognition remains highly variable.
Methods: Fifty-two community-dwelling healthy older adults (28 women) were recruited.
Volumetric Characterization of Medial Temporal Lobe in Down Syndrome Along the Alzheimer's Disease Continuum.
Alzheimers Dement
December 2024
Sant Pau Memory Unit, Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau, Biomedical Research Institute Sant Pau, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain
Background: Individuals with Down Syndrome (DS) almost invariably develop Alzheimer's Disease (AD), but detecting early clinical changes is challenging due to comorbid intellectual disability, highlighting the importance of non‐invasive biomarkers. Neuroimaging of the medial temporal lobe (MTL), a key site of tau pathology, shows promise as an early AD biomarker. Here, we aimed to characterise volumetric patterns of the MTL in DS across the AD clinical continuum, and define associations with AD cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers.

Material And Methods: The study included patients with any type of ACS and obstructive coronary artery disease confirmed by coronary angiography. A quantitative analysis of coronary angiography data was performed with an assessment of the number of CAs with significant stenosis and calculation of the SYNTAX score.
