Parkinson's disease (PD) is a highly heterogeneous disorder that is difficult to diagnose. Therefore, reliable biomarkers are needed. We implemented a method constructing a regional radiomics similarity network (R2SN) based on the amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF). We classified patients with PD and healthy individuals by using a machine learning approach in accordance with the R2SN connectome. The ALFF-based R2SN exhibited great reproducibility with different brain atlases and datasets. Great classification performances were achieved both in primary (AUC = 0.85 ± 0.02 and accuracy = 0.81 ± 0.03) and independent external validation (AUC = 0.77 and accuracy = 0.70) datasets. The discriminative R2SN edges correlated with the clinical evaluations of patients with PD. The nodes of discriminative R2SN edges were primarily located in the default mode, sensorimotor, executive control, visual and frontoparietal network, cerebellum and striatum. These findings demonstrate that ALFF-based R2SN is a robust potential neuroimaging biomarker for PD and could provide new insights into connectome reorganization in PD.

Background: Metabolic-bariatric surgery (MBS) transcends weight loss and offers wide-ranging health benefits, including positive effects on brain function. However, the mechanisms behind these effects remain unclear, particularly in the context of significant postoperative changes in the inflammatory profile characteristic of MBS. Understanding how inflammation influences postoperative brain function can enhance our decision-making on patient eligibility for MBS and create new opportunities to improve the outcomes of this popular treatment.

Background: Fast-acting Sub-perception Therapy (FAST) is a novel spinal cord stimulation (SCS) modality delivering paresthesia-free pain relief. Our study evaluated the longer-term, real-world impact of FAST on chronic pain.
Research Design And Methods: As part of a multicenter, real-world, consecutive case series, we retrospectively identified patients who used FAST-SCS and analyzed their data.

Rationale And Objectives: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common pathogenesis of dementia, and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is considered as the intermediate stage from normal elderly to AD. Early detection of MCI is an essential step for the timely intervention of AD to slow the progression of this disease. Different form previous studies in the whole-brain spontaneous activities, this research aimed to explore the low-frequency amplitude spectrum activities of patients with MCI within the default mode network (DMN), which has been involved in the process of maintaining normal cognitive function.

Background: Extraintestinal symptoms (EIS) in inflammatory bowel diseases, including fatigue, depression and anxiety, are highly prevalent, but poorly understood. Alterations of brain function may contribute to EIS, but their association with disease activity is unclear. This study analyzed intrinsic neural activity (INA) of individuals with Crohn's disease (CD) in different disease states and examined the relationship between INA and EIS.

The water trimer, as the smallest water cluster in which the three-body interactions can manifest, is arguably the most important hydrogen-bonded trimer. Accurate, fully coupled quantum treatment of its excited intermolecular vibrations has long been an elusive goal. Here, we present the methodology that for the first time allows rigorous twelve-dimensional (12D) quantum calculation of the intermolecular vibration-tunneling eigenstates of the water trimer, with the monomers treated as rigid.
