Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring the Association of HLA Genetic Risk Burden on Thalamic and Hippocampal Atrophy in Multiple Sclerosis Patients
Silvia Santoro,Ferdinando Clarelli,Paolo Preziosa,Loredana Storelli,Miryam Cannizzaro,Elisabetta Mascia,Federica Esposito,Maria A. Rocca,Massimo Filippi +8 more
TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated the association between the HLA genetic burden (HLAGB), originating from the most updated HLA alleles associated with MS, and neuroimaging endophenotypes, with a specific focus on brain atrophy metrics.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Functional and Structural MRI Changes Associated With Cognitive Worsening in Multiple Sclerosis: A 3-Year Longitudinal Study (P11-3.003)
Matteo Azzimonti,Paolo Preziosa,Paola Valsasina,Elisabetta Pagani,Olga Marchesi,Nicolò Tedone,Carmen Vizzino,Massimo Filippi,Maria A. Rocca +8 more
TL;DR: Filippi et al. as discussed by the authors found that cognitive deterioration in MS patients was associated with decreased functional connectivity in several functional brain networks, with limited GM atrophy progression, including right hippocampus of right WMN and left insula of default mode network.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The Positive Effects of Aerobic Capacity on Fatigue are Mediated by Thalamic Nuclei in People With Multiple Sclerosis (S27.008)
Matteo Albergoni,Tetsuro Morozumi,Elisabetta Pagani,Paolo Preziosa,Monica Margoni,Massimo Filippi,Maria A. Rocca +6 more
TL;DR: Filippi et al. as discussed by the authors found that higher aerobic capacity was associated with greater volume of the whole thalamus, pulvinar and ventral nuclei (r-value: from 0.674 to 0.714, p≤0.018), with a stronger association with cognitive rather than physical fatigue.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Time-Varying Functional Connectivity of the Hippocampus Is Associated With Cognitive Performance in Multiple Sclerosis Patients (P10-3.014)
Monica Margoni,Paola Valsasina,Paolo Preziosa,Olga Marchesi,Carmen Vizzino,Damiano Mistri,Massimo Filippi,Maria A. Rocca +7 more
TL;DR: Filippi et al. as discussed by the authors explored hippocampal static (sFC) and time-varying functional connectivity (TVFC) to assess their association with cognition in multiple sclerosis (MS).
Journal Article
A fMRI Graph Theory Study of the Effect of Gender and Aging on Topology of Functional Brain Networks (P6.310)
Gianna C Riccitelli,Maria A. Rocca,Paola Valsasina,Alessandro Meani,Federica Agosta,Massimo Filippi +5 more
TL;DR: Age-related decline of functional network measures were detected in both genders and was more severe in regions of the frontal lobes and the basal ganglia than in the other brain areas, and gender does not influence such an altered network connectivity with aging.
