White matter fiber-specific degeneration in older adults with metabolic syndrome
Building a Tissue-unbiased Brain Template of Fibre Orientation Distribution and Tractography with Multimodal Registration
TLDR
The potential of generating the FOD template based on multimodal registration is explored, in order to constrain the tempalte unbiased to both white and grey matter, to generate a coherent transformation for FOD registration and template generation.
Six Months of Piano Training in Healthy Elderly Stabilizes White Matter Microstructure in the Fornix, Compared to an Active Control Group
While aging is characterized by neurodegeneration, musical training is associated with experience-driven brain plasticity and protection against age-related cognitive decline. However, evidence for…
Developmental pattern of association fibers and their interaction with associated cortical microstructures in 0-5-month-old infants
Brain imaging and neuropsychological assessment of individuals recovered from mild to moderate SARS-CoV-2 infection
TLDR
It is suggested that subtle changes in white matter extracellular water content may last beyond the acute infection with SARS-CoV-2, which was not associated with neuropsychological deficits, significant changes in cortical structure or vascular lesions several months after recovery.
Application of Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) in the Diagnosis of HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Disorder (HAND): A Meta-Analysis and a System Review
TLDR
The meta-analysis shows that the HAND group has lower fractional anisotropy and higher mean diffusivity than the healthy control group in corpus callosum and the heterogeneity between the studies is high.
CONN-NLM: A Novel CONNectome-Based Non-local Means Filter for Positron-Emission Tomography-Magnetic Resonance Imaging Denoising

CONN-NLM: A Novel CONNectome-Based Non-local Means Filter for PET-MRI Denoising
TLDR
A CONNectome-based Non-Local Means (CONN-NLM) filter to exploit synergies between dMRI-derived structural connectivity and PET intensity information to denoise PET images and has unique advantages of providing more informative and accurate PET smoothing.
Structural brain connectivity in children after neonatal stroke: A whole-brain fixel-based analysis
An investigation of age-related neuropathophysiology in autism spectrum disorder using fixel-based analysis of corpus callosum white matter micro- and macrostructure
TLDR
White matter aberration appears greatest among younger ASD cohorts, and the suggestion that some early neuropathophysiological indicators in ASD may dissipate with age is supported.

Impact of long- and short-range fiber depletion on the cognitive deficits of fronto-temporal dementia
TLDR
The results support the importance of the disruption of specific WM tracts to the core cognitive symptoms associated with FTD and highlight the need to control for risk factors associated with deep white matter disease, such as vascular risk factors, in patients withFTD in order not to potentiate underlying executive dysfunction.
