Effect of Fingolimod on Brain Volume Loss in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis
Brain atrophy occurs at a faster rate in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) than in healthy individuals. In three randomized, controlled, phase III trials, fingolimod reduced the annual rate of brain volume loss (BVL) in patients with relapsing MS (RMS) by approximately one-third relative to that in individuals receiving placebo or intramuscular interferon beta-1a. Analysis of brain volume c...
متن کاملThe Relationship between Brain Volume, Brain Weight and IQ in Children in Primary Schools in the South of Iran
Background: Anthropometry is a branch of anatomy. One of the important parts of anthropometry is cephalometry, which is characterized by anatomical dimensions of the head area. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between brain volume, weight, and IQ in children. Methods: This descriptive-analytical study was performed on 300 students...
متن کاملTrends in Brain Volume Change with Normal Ageing
In order to measure cerebral atrophy due to neurodegenerative diseases, the major confounding factor of normal age-related atrophy must be taken into account. Furthermore, in order to compare cerebral volume measurements across multiple subjects, normalisation for differences in head size is also required. We describe an investigation of these normalisations based on measurements of cerebro-spi...
متن کاملHeritability of brain volume change and its relation to intelligence
Human brain volumes change throughout life, are highly heritable, and have been associated with general cognitive functioning. Cross-sectionally, this association between volume and cognition can largely be attributed to the same genes influencing both traits. We address the question whether longitudinal changes in brain volume or in surface area in young adults are under genetic control and wh...
متن کاملLarger Volume and Different Activation of the Brain in Response to Threat in Military Officers
Introduction: Military missions involve stressful and life-threatening situations; however, soldiers should have a healthy cognition on the battlefield despite their high-stress levels. This is an ability that should be gained during prior military training. Successful and influential training is suggested to be associated with structural and functional improvements of the brain. Methods: This...
