There is sometimes a divergence between brain atrophy and impairments in cognitive function. The present study aimed to assess the relationship between cognitive function and the grey-matter brain healthcare quotient (GM-BHQ), which represents brain volume as a deviation value. In addition, we ...
Voxel-wise analyses of gray matter volume and functional connectivity were conducted using a general linear regression model. This model included age, sex, diagnosis, and a sex-by-diagnosis interaction as predictors to explore potential sex-related differences in the brain features of participants ...
Dyslexia and voxel-based morphometry: correlations between five behavioural measures of dyslexia and gray and white matter volumes Article Open access 24 April 2015 Voxel and surface based whole brain analysis shows reading skill associated grey matter abnormalities in dyslexia Article Open access 25...
Here, brain structure refers to the architecture of the brain, namely, the grey matter regions in the brain and the white matter fiber tracts that connect them, and brain function indicates the neuron activity that enables communication between those regions. Combined, the individual variations in ...
Loss of grey-matter volume with advancing age affects the entire cortex. It has been suggested that atrophy occurs in a network-dependent manner with advancing age rather than in independent brain areas. The relationship between networks of structural covariance (SCN) disintegration and cognitive func...
Due to the high density of neurons, grey matter is associated with cognition and processing. White matter corresponds to the rest of the matter of the cerebrum, and it is mostly seen in deeper parts of the cortex. It consists of myelinated neurons and glial cells, and myelin appears as ...
age and sex. We hypothesize that this selective vulnerability is underpinned by physiological variation in white matter glia. Using single nucleus RNA sequencing of human post-mortem white matter samples from the brain, cerebellum and spinal cord and subsequent tissue-based validation we found substanti...
Grey and white matter Cell body of neuron Soma 1/7 Synonyms: Perikaryon, Corpus neuri The chief cells of the brain and spinal cord are the neurons, which receive and transmit neural impulses. Each neuron has a body which is its micro-command center, and it has a gray color when ...
On either side of the cord the anterior lateral and posterior lateral fissures represent the points where the ventral and dorsal rootlets (later roots) emerge from the cord to form the spinal nerves. Unlike the brain, in the spinal cord the grey matter is surrounded by the white matter at ...
The cerebral cortex is made up of grey matter which is a type of brain tissue that consists of neurons. The neurons in the cerebral cortex are known as cortical neurons, and there are many cortical neurons in this area of the brain. In fact, the grey matter of the cerebral cortex ...
