Post stroke depression (PSD) is a serious complication of stroke. Brain imaging is an important method of studying the mechanism of PSD. However, few studies have focused on the single lesion location. The aim of this study was to investigate the brain mechanism of frontal lobe PSD using comb...

gray matter volume (GMV) measures were investigated through multiple generalized linear models and mediation models. We found a mutual link between prenatal complications, GMV alterations in the frontal gyrus, and withdrawn problems. Specifically, complications during pregnancy were associated with higher C...
DT-MRI tractography can now be used to explore, in a standardized brain space, the relationships of white matter tracts with the lesions found in stroke patients with standard, anatomical MRI. Thus, for the first time, white matter pathways can be explored in detail in the living human brain...
On a separate note, in post-stroke depression, a significant inverse correlation between severity of depression and distance of lesion from frontal pole in the left hemisphere lesions was noted (Narushima et al., 2003), whereas another meta-analysis did not show such correlations (Yu et al.,...
Further, those surviving a stroke will have greater difficulty with recovery, as neurotransmitter metabolism is altered. Interestingly, McCall sites Woo et al. [85] who reports that the increased risk of stroke in diabetics may be the result of the stress response. Specifically, when diabetics ...
Previous lesion studies in felines and clinical observations on stroke patients have shown that a contralateral brain lesion on a previously spared hemisphere can, paradoxically, cancel the deficits in visuospatial functions generated by a first lesion (e.g., can enable recovery from visuospatial negle...
to cause frontal lobe dysfunction, including difficulty in set shifting, impaired execu- tive function and decreased verbal fluency, as seen in the present study.24,25,27 This is the first study that showed CKD was associated with frontal lobe dysfunction independently of subclinical lacunar stroke...
and backward to the parietal lobe, has been proposed for language processes by Rauschecker and Scott41, possibly supporting functional integration of the perception-production continuum on the basis of structural connections in humans, and functional studies in the monkey (as well as human) model. ...
Background/Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate preoperative interhemispheric differences of the FAT in relation to the onset of postoperative SMA syndrome. Methods: This was a single-center retrospective analysis of patients who unde
