Decreased gyrification in major depressive disorder

open access: yes, 2009
Structural and functional abnormalities have been extensively reported in major depressive disorder, but possible changes in cortical folding have not yet been explored in this disorder.

Lower Gyrification of the Ventromedial Prefrontal Cortex in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: An ENIGMA-PTSD Study

open access: yesBiological Psychiatry Global Open Science
Background: Cortical gyrification involves the formation of folds in the cerebral cortex, coinciding with key neurodevelopmental processes. Its strong correlation with increased cortical surface area and decreased cortical thickness may improve cortical ...

Structural Covariance Network of Cortical Gyrification in Benign Childhood Epilepsy with Centrotemporal Spikes

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Benign childhood epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (BECTS) is associated with cognitive and language problems. According to recent studies, disruptions in brain structure and function in children with BECTS are beyond a Rolandic focus, suggesting ...

Cortical Gyrification and Sulcal Spans in Early Stage Alzheimer's Disease

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by an insidious onset of progressive cerebral atrophy and cognitive decline. Previous research suggests that cortical folding and sulcal width are associated with cognitive function in elderly individuals, and the aim of the present study was to investigate these morphological measures in patients with AD.

Burst of gyrification in the human brain after birth

open access: yesCommunications Biology
Gyrification, the intricate folding of the brain’s cortex, begins mid-gestation and surges dramatically throughout the perinatal period. Yet, a critical factor has been largely overlooked in neurodevelopmental research: the profound impact of birth on ...

Gyrification, cortical and subcortical morphometry in neurofibromatosis type 1: an uneven profile of developmental abnormalities. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is a monogenic disorder associated with cognitive impairments. In order to understand how mutations in the NF1 gene impact brain structure it is essential to characterize in detail the brain structural ...

Improvement of spatial learning and memory, cortical gyrification patterns and brain oxidative stress markers in diabetic rats treated with Ficus deltoidea leaf extract and vitexin

open access: yesJournal of Traditional and Complementary Medicine, 2018
Despite the fact that Ficus deltoidea and vitexin played important roles in controlling hyperglycemia, an effective mitigation strategy dealing with cognitive deficit observed in diabetes, little is known about its neuroprotective effects.

Reduced cortical thickness and increased gyrification in generalized anxiety disorder: a 3 T MRI study

open access: yes, 2017
BackgroundAlthough the study of the neuroanatomical correlates of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is gaining increasing interest, up to now the cortical anatomy of GAD patients has been poorly investigated and still no data on cortical gyrification ...

A curvature-based approach to estimate local gyrification on the cortical surface

open access: yesNeuroImage, 2006
Using magnetic resonance imaging and a new method to analyze local surface shape, we examined the effects of gender on gyrification in a large and well-matched sample of healthy subjects. Unlike traditional 2D methods that produce whole-brain measurements of cortical complexity or more sophisticated 3D parametric mesh-based techniques that allow only ...

Mapping primary gyrogenesis during fetal development in primate brains: high-resolution in utero structural MRI study of fetal brain development in pregnant baboons

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2010
The global and regional changes in the fetal cerebral cortex in primates were mapped during primary gyrification (PG; weeks 17-25 of 26 weeks total gestation).
