Abstract

Previous magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) research suggests that aging is associated with a decrease in the functional interconnections within and between groups of locally organized brain regions (modules). Further, this age-related decrease in the segregation of modules appears to be more pronounced for a task, relative to a resting state, reflecting the integration of functional modules and attentional allocation necessary to support task performance. Here, using graph-theoretical analyses, we investigated age-related differences in a whole-brain measure of module connectivity, system segregation, for 68 healthy, community-dwelling individuals 18–78 years of age. We obtained resting-state, task-related (visual search), and structural (diffusion-weighted) MRI data. Using a parcellation of modules derived from the participants’ resting-state functional MRI data, we demonstrated that the decrease in system segregation from rest to task (i.e., reconfiguration) increased with age, suggesting an age-related increase in the integration of modules required by the attentional demands of visual search. Structural system segregation increased with age, reflecting weaker connectivity both within and between modules. Functional and structural system segregation had qualitatively different influences on age-related decline in visual search performance. Functional system segregation (and reconfiguration) influenced age-related decline in the rate of visual evidence accumulation (drift rate), whereas structural system segregation contributed to age-related slowing of encoding and response processes (nondecision time). The age-related differences in the functional system segregation measures, however, were relatively independent of those associated with structural connectivity.

Stumme Schlaganfälle − ein häufiger Nebenbefund im Kopf-CT?

12.01.2025
Computertomografie
Nachrichten

In 4% der in der Notfallambulanz initiierten zerebralen Bildgebung sind „alte“ Schlaganfälle zu erkennen. Gar nicht so selten handelt es sich laut einer aktuellen Studie dabei um unbemerkte Insulte. Bietet sich hier womöglich die Chance auf ein effektives opportunistisches Screening?

CGRP-Antikörper auch bei älteren Migränekranken sicher

09.01.2025
Migräne
Nachrichten

Beginnen ältere Migränekranke eine Prophylaxe mit CGRP-Antikörpern, kommt es anschließend nicht häufiger zu kardiovaskulären Problemen als unter einer Prophylaxe mit Botulinumtoxin. Darauf deutet eine US-Analyse von Medicare-Versicherten.

Frühwarnzeichen für multiple Sklerose bei Kindern und Jugendlichen

09.01.2025
Multiple Sklerose
Nachrichten

Ein Forschungsteam aus Deutschland und Kanada hat eine Reihe metabolischer, okulärer, muskuloskelettaler, gastrointestinaler und kardiovaskulärer Symptome identifiziert, die bei Kindern und Jugendlichen der Diagnose einer multiplen Sklerose (MS) vorausgehen können.

Migräne verstehen und psychotherapeutisch behandeln

31.12.2024
Migräne
Podcast

Das Wissen über die Mechanismen, die im Gehirn bei einer Migräneattacke ablaufen, und mögliche Auslöser wird immer breiter. Der psychologische Psychotherapeut Dr. Dipl.-Psych. Timo Klan fasst den aktuellen Erkenntnisstand zusammen. Und er gibt Tipps für eine differenzierte, individuelle Diagnostik auch von Begleiterkrankungen und beschreibt erfolgreiche psychotherapeutische Interventionen.
