Abstract:
Objective To investigate the abnormal region of gray matter and distribution in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD),and explore the brain structural changes closely related to mild cognitive impairment(MCI).Methods 20 cases of PD-MCI, 1 7 cases of PD-nMCI and 20 normal controls (NC)were examined by 3D-T1 WI brain volume sequence.The data of three groups were analyzed using voxel-based morphometry(VBM)based on SPM8 to generate gray matter map.Results Compared to NC,decreased gray matter volume in PD-nMCI was observed in the right temporal lobe,including the middle temporal gyrus,inferior temporal gyrus,and right fusiform gyrus,uncus and left superior temporal gyrus.Compared to PD-nMCI,decreased gray matter volume in PD-MCI was observed in the bilateral midfrontal gyrus,inferior frontal gyrus,left precentral gyrus,right midtemporal gyrus,superior temporal gyrus,bilateral insular,and right cuneus,lingual gyrus,posterior cingutate.Conclusion Decreased gray volume in PD-nMCI is mainly located in the right temporal lobe and right uncus.With occurrence of MCI,abnormal brain regions are gradually extended.Gray matter atrophy in the bilateral midfrontal gyrus,inferior frontal gyrus,and left precentral gyrus are related to the MCI.
