| Περίληψη | Purpose Τhe study examined changes in hemodynamics and functional connectivity in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) with or without neuropsychiatric manifestations. Methods Participants were 44 patients with neuropsychiatric SLE (NPSLE), 20 SLE patients without such manifestations (non-NPSLE), and 35 healthy controls. Resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) was used to obtain whole-brain maps of (a) perfusion dynamics derived through time shift analysis (TSA), (b) regional functional connectivity (intrinsic connectivity contrast (ICC) coefficients), and (c) hemodynamic-connectivity coupling. Group differences were assessed through independent samples t-tests, and correlations of rs-fMRI indices with clinical variables and neuropsychological test scores were, also, computed. Results Compared to HC, NPSLE patients demonstrated intrinsic hypoconnectivity of anterior Default Mode Network (DMN) and hyperconnectivity of posterior DMN components. These changes were paralleled by elevated hemodynamic lag. In NPSLE, cognitive performance was positively related to higher intrinsic connectivity in these regions, and to higher connectivity-hemodynamic coupling in posterior DMN components. Uncoupling between hemodynamics and connectivity in the posterior DMN was associated with worse task performance. Non-NPSLE patients displayed hyperconnectivity in posterior DMN and sensorimotor regions paralleled by relatively increased hemodynamic lag. Conclusion Adaptation of regional brain function to hemodynamic changes in NPSLE may involve locally decreased or locally increased intrinsic connectivity (which can be beneficial for cognitive function). This process may also involve elevated coupling of hemodynamics with functional connectivity (beneficial for cognitive performance) or uncoupling, which may be detrimental for the cognitive skills of NPSLE patients. | en |
